Jeremiah 20:14-18

14CursedH779 be the dayH3117 whereinH834 I was bornH3205: letH408 notH408 the dayH3117 whereinH834 my motherH517 bare meH3205 be blessedH1288. 15CursedH779 be the manH376 who broughtH3205 tidingsH1319 to my fatherH1, sayingH559, A manH376 childH1121 is bornH3205 unto thee; making him veryH8055 gladH8055. 16And letH1961 that manH376 be as the citiesH5892 whichH834 the LORDH3068 overthrewH2015, and repentedH5162 notH3808: and letH1961 him hearH8085 a cryH2201 in the morningH1242, and shoutingH8643 at noontide; 17becauseH834 he slew meH4191 notH3808 from the wombH7358; and soH1961 my motherH517 should have been my graveH6913, and herH1961 wombH7358 alwaysH5769 great. 18Wherefore cameH3318 I forthH3318 outH3318 of the wombH7358 to seeH7200 labour and sorrowH3015, that my daysH3117 should be consumedH3615 with shameH1322?
