You who atest the righteous,
And see the1 mind and heart,
bLet me see Your vengeance on them;
For I have pleaded my cause before You.
For aHe has delivered the life of the poor
From the hand of evildoers.
Who brought news to my father, saying,
“A male child has been born to you!”
Making him very glad.
Which the Lord aoverthrew, and did not relent;
Let him bhear the cry in the morning
And the shouting at noon,
That my mother might have been my grave,
And her womb always enlarged with me.
That my days should be consumed with shame?

Jeremiah 20:14
Cursed - This sudden change makes some think that these words proceeded from Jeremiah rather as a repetition of a former passion into which the abuses of his enemies had put him, than as the immediate product of his spirit at this time.
