Hebrew millah (Job 30:9), a word or speech, and hence object of talk; Hebrew mashal (Ps 44:14), a proverb or parable. When it denotes a sharp word of derision, as in De 28:37; 1Ki 9:7; 2Ch 7:20, the Hebrew sheninah is used. In Jer 24:9 it is rendered "taunt."

And now I have become their song, and I am a word of shame to them.
Our name is a word of shame among the nations, a sign for the shaking of heads among the peoples.
I will give them up to be a cause of fear and of trouble among all the kingdoms of the earth; to be a name of shame and common talk and a cutting word and a curse in all the places wherever I will send them wandering.
