Jeremiah 20:16-18
New International Reader's Version
16 May that man be like the towns
the Lord destroyed without pity.
May that man hear loud weeping in the morning.
May he hear a battle cry at noon.
17 He should have killed me in my mother’s body.
He should have made my mother my grave.
He should have let her body stay large forever.
18 Why did I ever come out of my mother’s body?
I’ve seen nothing but trouble and sorrow.
My days will end in shame.
