Jeremiah 20:18
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Why did I come out of the womb to see only trouble and sorrow, and to end my days in shame?
In context
16 May that man be like the cities that the LORD overthrew without compassion. May he hear an outcry in the morning and a battle cry at noon,
17 because he did not kill me in the womb so that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb forever enlarged.
18 Why did I come out of the womb to see only trouble and sorrow, and to end my days in shame?
