Jeremiah 20:8

Jeremiah's Lament

⁷ Thou didst persuade me, O Yahweh and I was persuaded, Thou didst lay firm hold on me and didst prevail, - I am become a mockery, all the day, Every one, is laughing at me. ⁸ For, as often as I speak, I make outcry, Violence and wasting, I proclaim, - Yea the word of Yahweh hath become to me a reproach and derision lull the day ⁹ Therefore I say - I will not mention him Neither will I speak any more in his name, But then it becometh in my heart as a fire that burneth, Shut up in my bones, - And I am weary of restraint and cannot refrain.

All Day Long
