Jeremiah 20:16

Jeremiah's Lament

¹⁵ Cursed be the man who brought the news
To my father, saying,
“A baby boy has been born to you!”
And made him very happy.
¹⁶ But let that man be like the cities
Which the Lord overthrew without relenting,
And let him hear an outcry in the morning
And a shout of alarm at noon;
¹⁷ Because he did not kill me before birth,
So that my mother would have been my grave,
And her womb ever pregnant.

All Day Long

Cry for Help

Let Him Hear

Jehovah
