ordained
forme were recorded in your scroll before one of them
came into
existence.

my Lord
should come to me?

his wife
because she was barren; and the LORD was entreated by

LORD.

Exodus 21:22-24 If men
who are fighting hit a pregnant woman and she gives
birth prematurely
but there is no serious injury, the offender must be

you are to take life for life, eye for eye, tooth for
tooth, foot for foot,
burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.

written, the days that were
ordained {for me} when as yet there was not one of them.

from womb to tomb.'
Jer 20:15-18
15 Cursed be the man who brought the news to my father,
saying, "A baby boy
has been born to you!" {And} made him very happy.
16 But let that man be like the cities which the LORD
overthrew without
relenting, and let him hear an outcry in the morning and
a shout of alarm at
noon;
17 Because he did not kill me before birth, so that my
mother would have
been my grave, and her womb ever pregnant.
18 Why did I ever come forth from the womb to look on
trouble and sorrow, so
that my days have been spent in shame?
