multiple delete using sed

Hi, I used to use sed to delete pattern from file using:

sed '/PATTERN/d' myfile

but how if I have 100 pattern to delete which is listed separated by new line in file called mypattern

sed -e '/PATTERN1/d' -e '/PATTERN2/d' and so on would be tedious

Can anyone help,

Thanks a lot
