Old TestamentJeremiahJeremiah Curses the Day of His Birth · 20:14–1820:14 Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.20:15 Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad.20:16 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;20:17 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.20:18 Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
