Jeremiah 20:14-18 NIV

[14] Cursed be the day I was born! May the day my mother bore me not be blessed! [15] Cursed be the man who brought my father the news, who made him very glad, saying, “A child is born to you—a son!” [16] May that man be like the towns the LORD overthrew without pity. May he hear wailing in the morning, a battle cry at noon. [17] For he did not kill me in the womb, with my mother as my grave, her womb enlarged forever. [18] Why did I ever come out of the womb to see trouble and sorrow and to end my days in shame?
