Jeremiah 20:16 in Context — Jeremiah 20
14 Maldito el día en que nací: el día en que mi madre me parió no sea bendito.
15 Maldito el hombre que dió nuevas á mi padre, diciendo, Hijo varón te ha nacido, haciéndole alegrarse así mucho.
16 Y sea el tal hombre como las ciudades que asoló Jehová, y no se arrepintió: y oiga gritos de mañana, y voces al medio día;
17 Porque no me mató en el vientre, y mi madre me hubiera sido mi sepulcro, y su vientre concebimiento perpetuo.
18 ¿Para qué salí del vientre? ¿para ver trabajo y dolor, y que mis días se gastasen en afrenta?
