Jeremiah 20:7-9
[7]O  lord, you misled me,
    and I allowed myself to be misled.
You are stronger than I am,
    and you overpowered me.
Now I am mocked every day;
    everyone laughs at me.
[8]When I speak, the words burst out.
    “Violence and destruction!” I shout.
So these messages from the lord
    have made me a household joke.
[9]But if I say I’ll never mention the lord
    or speak in his name,
his word burns in my heart like a fire.
    It’s like a fire in my bones!
I am worn out trying to hold it in!
    I can’t do it!
