The King James Version Bible

Jeremiah 20:16-18

  1. And let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontide;

  2. Because he slew me not from the womb; or that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb to be always great with me.

  3. Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
