Jeremiah 20:2-4

Expanded Bible

² he had Jeremiah the prophet beaten. And he ·locked [put] Jeremiah in stocks [^Cwooden restraints] at the Upper Gate of Benjamin of the Lord’s Temple. ³ The next day when Pashhur ·took [released] Jeremiah ·out of the blocks of wood [from the stocks], Jeremiah said to him, “The Lord’s name for you is not Pashhur. Now his name for you is Magor-Missabib [^C“Terror on Every Side”]. ⁴ This is what the Lord says: ‘I will soon make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends. You will watch enemies ·killing [^Lmake fall] your friends with swords. And I will give all the people of Judah to the king of Babylon, who will ·take them away as captives [exile them] to Babylon and then will ·kill [^Lstrike] them with swords.
