20:7 Lord, you coerced me into being a prophet,
and I allowed you to do it.
You overcame my resistance and prevailed over me.
Now I have become a constant laughingstock.
Everyone ridicules me.
20:8 For whenever I prophesy,
“Violence and destruction are coming!”
This message from the Lord
an object of continual insults and derision.
5:19 They say, “Let him hurry, let him act quickly,
so we can see;
let the plan of the Holy One of Israel
then we will know it!”
5:18 Woe
Why do you want the Lord’s day of judgment to come?
It will bring darkness, not light.
5:2 “The virgin
She is abandoned on her own land
with no one to help her get up.”
3:3 Do two walk together without having met?
3:4 Does a lion roar in the woods if he has not cornered his prey?
Does a young lion bellow from his den if he has not caught something?
