Jeremiah 20:8-9

Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.

8For each time I speak, I cry aloud;

I proclaim violence and destruction,

Because for me the word of the Lord has resulted

In taunting and derision all day long.

9But if I say, “I will not remember Him

Nor speak anymore in His name,”

Then in my heart it becomes like a burning fire

Shut up in my bones;

And I am tired of holding it in,

And I cannot endure it.
