Jeremiah 20:16-18 God's Word Translation (GW)

16. May that man be like the citiesthat the Lord destroyed without pity.May he hear a cry of alarm in the morningand a battle cry at noon.

17. If only he had killed me while I was in the womb.Then my mother would have been my grave,and she would have always been pregnant.

18. Why did I come out of the womb?All I’ve seen is trouble and grief.I will finish my days in shame.
