Jeremiah 20:15-17
English Standard Version
15 Cursed be the man who brought the news to my father,
“A son is born to you,”
(A)making him very glad.
16 Let that man be like (B)the cities
that the Lord overthrew without pity;
(C)let him hear a cry in the morning
and an alarm at noon,
17 (D)because he did not kill me in the womb;
so my mother would have been my grave,
and her womb forever great.
Jeremiah 20:15-17
New International Version
15 Cursed be the man who brought my father the news,
who made him very glad, saying,
“A child is born to you—a son!”
16 May that man be like the towns(A)
the Lord overthrew without pity.
May he hear wailing(B) in the morning,
a battle cry at noon.
17 For he did not kill me in the womb,(C)
with my mother as my grave,
her womb enlarged forever.
