Jeremiah 20:14 Cross References - YLT

¹⁴ Cursed is the day in which I was born, The day that my mother bare me, Let it not be blessed!

³ Let the day perish in which I am born, And the night that hath said: `A man-child hath been conceived.' ⁴ That day—let it be darkness, Let not God require it from above, Nor let light shine upon it. ⁵ Let darkness and death-shade redeem it, Let a cloud tabernacle upon it, Let them terrify it as the most bitter of days. ⁶ That night—let thick darkness take it, Let it not be united to days of the year, Into the number of months let it not come. ⁷ Lo! that night—let it be gloomy, Let no singing come into it. ⁸ Let the cursers of day mark it, Who are ready to wake up Leviathan. ⁹ Let the stars of its twilight be dark, Let it wait for light, and there is none, And let it not look on the eyelids of the dawn. ¹⁰ Because it hath not shut the doors Of the womb that was mine! And hide misery from mine eyes.
¹¹ Why from the womb do I not die? From the belly I have come forth and gasp! ¹² Wherefore have knees been before me? And what are breasts, that I suck? ¹³ For now, I have lain down, and am quiet, I have slept—then there is rest to me, ¹⁴ With kings and counsellors of earth, These building wastes for themselves. ¹⁵ Or with princes—they have gold, They are filling their houses with silver. ¹⁶ (Or as a hidden abortion I am not, As infants—they have not seen light.)

¹⁰ Woe to me, my mother, For thou hast borne me a man of strife, And a man of contention to all the land, I have not lent on usury, Nor have they lent on usury to me—All of them are reviling me.
