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.

8 For whenever I prophesy, I must cry out, |Violence and destruction are coming!| This message from the LORD has made me an object of continual insults and derision.
