Jeremiah 20:15-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁵ Cursed be the man
    who brought the news to my father.
“A child, a son, has been born to you,”
    thereby bringing great joy to his heart.
¹⁶ Let that man be like the cities
    that the Lord overthrew without mercy.
Let him hear the cry of warning in the morning
    and shouts of battle at noon
¹⁷ because he did not kill me in the womb.
Then my mother would have been my grave,
    with her womb confining me forever.
