Jeremiah 20:14

Again Jeremiah cursed the day of his birth; he felt bitterly sorry that he had ever been born (cf. Jeremiah 15:10; Job 3:3-6). Cursing one’s parents or God was a capital offense under the Mosaic Law (Leviticus 20:9; Leviticus 24:10-16), but Jeremiah did not do that. He meant that his birth occurred on a day that God had cursed, and that accounted for his misfortune.
