Jeremiah 20:8

because every time I speak [receive a prophetic message], I must cry out:
"Violence and oppression are coming!" [A message of judgment that has not yet been fulfilled.]
The word of the Lord causes me to be mocked all day long.
[He was considered a false prophet in the eyes of the people.]
