Jeremiah’s Dejection

10 (A)Woe is me, my mother,

Nor have men lent to me for interest.
Every one of them curses me.

10 Woe to me, O my mother, that you gave birth to me,
    a man of contention and quarreling to the whole land.[a]
I have not lent out and I have not borrowed.[b]
    All of them are cursing me.
