Bible Verses About Miscarriage

“I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly.”

— Psalms 22:10

The Bible does not have a word for ultrasound, but it has very precise words for the God who forms life in the womb and numbers the days before one of them happens. These verses are for a grief most people carry silently. The fifteen verses below are the Bible's direct address to that situation, shown in full KJV text from Psalms 22:10 to Psalms 127:3.

Quick answer: The best-known verse about miscarriage here is Psalms 22:10: "I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly." Psalms 119:73 follows close behind: "Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments." Both are public-domain translations, shown in full on the cards below with a modern-English toggle.

When to read these verses

These verses are for the hard hours — the waiting room, the graveside, the first week, the anniversary nobody else remembers. They are short on explanation and long on presence, which matches what actually helps. Read them aloud if you can; comfort verses were written for voices, not screens.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best Bible verse about miscarriage?
Psalms 22:10 is the one most readers land on: "I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly." Psalms 119:73 is the usual second: "Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments." The full list of fifteen is on this page — there is no single required verse, and different seasons call for different texts.
Can these verses be read at a service or sent to someone grieving?
Yes — that is a primary use. Every verse on this page is public domain in both translations shown (King James Version and World English Bible), so they can be printed, read aloud, or included in a card without permission. The copy button renders the verse with its reference, ready to paste.
Where in the Bible does it talk about miscarriage?
The verses on this page come from 7 books of the Bible — most notably Psalms, Isaiah, Job and 4 more — spanning both Old and New Testaments. The distribution itself is worth noticing: Scripture addresses miscarriage in more than one voice, which is why the page shows whole verses rather than a single proof text.
How do I use a list of verses about miscarriage?
Read the list once slowly, then keep the one verse that fits your situation close — the copy button places it wherever you will actually see it. Every card can be switched to the World English Bible for modern wording, and the random verse tool at the top of the page can draw one verse from this theme at a time if the whole list is more than today needs.
