Jeremias 20:8 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 20:8

For since I spake, I cried out
Or, "when I speak, I cry" {a}; whensoever I speak in the name of the Lord, and deliver message from him to the people, I lift up my voice and cry aloud, that all may hear and understand; and as showing zeal, fervour, and diligence: or, "I cry" with grief and trouble at the usage I meet with, and the contempt that is cast upon the word; or because of what I am obliged to declare to them, as follows. The Targum takes in both sense, of the word thus,

``for at the time that I prophesy, I lift up my voice, weeping, and crying.''
I cried violence and spoil:
or, "proclaimed" it F2, for a different word is here used; that is, he publicly declared the rapine and oppression they were guilty of, inveighed against it, and reproved them for it; and foretold the violence of the enemy, and the spoil that he should make of them, when he should come upon them, even the king of Babylon; as well as cried out and complained of the injurious treatment he himself met with from them; because the word of the Lord was made a reproach unto me, and a
derision daily;
which is a reason either why he cried with grief and sorrow; or why he cried violence and spoil, ruin and destruction: or, "though the word of the Lord was" F3, &c; yet he went on publishing and proclaiming it: or, "surely the word of the Lord was made a reproach" F4, &c; either because of the matter of it, it not being believed, or the manner in which it was delivered; or because it was not immediately fulfilled.

Jeremias 20:8 In-Context

6 E você, Pasur, e todos os que vivem em sua casa irão para o exílio, para a Babilônia. Lá vocês morrerão e serão sepultados, você e todos os seus amigos a quem você tem profetizado mentiras’.”
7 SENHOR, tu me enganaste, e eu fui enganado;foste mais forte do que eu e prevaleceste.Sou ridicularizado o dia inteiro;todos zombam de mim.
8 Sempre que falo é para gritar que háviolência e destruição.Por isso a palavra dotrouxe-me insulto e censura o tempo todo.
9 Mas, se eu digo: “Não o mencionareinem mais falarei em seu nome”,é como se um fogo ardesse em meu coração,um fogo dentro de mim.Estou exausto tentando contê-lo;já não posso mais!
10 Ouço muitos comentando:“Terror por todos os lados!Denunciem-no! Vamos denunciá-lo!”Todos os meus amigos estão esperandoque eu tropece, e dizem:“Talvez ele se deixe enganar;então nós o venceremose nos vingaremos dele”.
