Jeremiah 20:16-18
Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 20:16-18
Contemporary English Version
16 May that man be like the towns
you destroyed without pity.
Let him hear shouts of alarm
in the morning
and battle cries at noon.
17 He deserves to die
for not killing me
before I was born.
Then my mother's body
would have been my grave.
18 Why did I have to be born?
Was it just to suffer
and die in shame?
Contemporary English Version (CEV)
