Jeremiah 20:3-10
3And it came to pass on the next dayH4283, that PashurH6583 brought forthH3318 JeremiahH3414 out of the stocksH4115. Then saidH559 JeremiahH3414 to him, The LORDH3068 hath not calledH7121 thy nameH8034 PashurH6583, but MagormissabibH4036.1 4For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will makeH5414 thee a terrorH4032 to thyself, and to all thy friendsH157: and they shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719 of their enemiesH341, and thy eyesH5869 shall beholdH7200 it : and I will giveH5414 all JudahH3063 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall carry them captiveH1540 into BabylonH894, and shall slayH5221 them with the swordH2719. 5Moreover I will deliverH5414 all the strengthH2633 of this cityH5892, and all its laboursH3018, and all its precious thingsH3366, and all the treasuresH214 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 will I giveH5414 into the handH3027 of their enemiesH341, who shall plunderH962 them, and takeH3947 them, and carryH935 them to BabylonH894. 6And thou, PashurH6583, and all that dwellH3427 in thy houseH1004 shall goH3212 into captivityH7628: and thou shalt comeH935 to BabylonH894, and there thou shalt dieH4191, and shalt be buriedH6912 there, thou, and all thy friendsH157, to whom thou hast prophesiedH5012 liesH8267.
7O LORDH3068, 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.2 8For sinceH1767 I spokeH1696, I cried outH2199, I criedH7121 violenceH2555 and spoilH7701; because the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 was made a reproachH2781 to 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 my heartH3820 as a burningH1197 fireH784 shut upH6113 in my bonesH6106, and I was wearyH3811 with forbearingH3557, and I couldH3201 not refrain . 10For I heardH8085 the defamingH1681 of manyH7227, fearH4032 on every sideH5439. ReportH5046, say they, and we will reportH5046 it. All my friendsH582H7965 watchedH8104 for my fallH6763H6761, saying, Perhaps he will be enticedH6601, and we shall prevailH3201 against him, and we shall takeH3947 our revengeH5360 on him.3
