Jeremiah 20:7-9

7O YhwhH3068, thou hast deceivedH6601 me, and I was deceivedH6601: thou art strongerH2388 than I, and hast prevailedH3201: I am in derisionH7814 dailyH3117, every one mockethH3932 me.1 8For sinceH1767 I spakeH1696, I cried outH2199, I criedH7121 violenceH2555 and spoilH7701; because the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 was made a reproachH2781 unto me, and a derisionH7047, dailyH3117. 9Then I saidH559, I will not make mentionH2142 of him, nor speakH1696 any more in his nameH8034. But his word was in mine heartH3820 as a burningH1197 fireH784 shut upH6113 in my bonesH6106, and I was wearyH3811 with forbearingH3557, and I couldH3201 not stay.
