Jeremiah 20:16-18

Authorized (King James) Version

¹⁶ And let that man be as the cities
which the Lord overthrew, and repented not:
and let him hear the cry in the morning,
and the shouting at noontide;
¹⁷ because he slew me not from the womb;
or that my mother might have been my grave,
and her womb to be always great with me.
¹⁸ Wherefore came I forth out of the womb
to see labour and sorrow,
that my days should be consumed with shame?
