I have become the laughingstock of all people, their mocking song all day long.

But I am a worm, not a man; people insult me and despise me.All who see me taunt me; they mock me and shake their heads.

A wind lifted me up and carried me away. I went bitterly, my spirit full of fury, and the hand of the LORD rested powerfully on me.

Sometimes I think,“ I will make no mention of his message. I will not speak as his messenger any more.” But then his message becomes like a fire locked up inside of me, burning in my heart and soul. I grow weary of trying to hold it in; I cannot contain it.

Also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him, and some were asking,“ What does this foolish babbler want to say?” Others said,“ He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign gods.”( They said this because he was proclaiming the good news about Jesus and the resurrection.)

Or do only Barnabas and I lack the right not to work?

For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men condemned to die, because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to people.We are fools for Christ, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are distinguished, we are dishonored!To the present hour we are hungry and thirsty, poorly clothed, brutally treated, and without a roof over our heads.We do hard work, toiling with our own hands. When we are verbally abused, we respond with a blessing, when persecuted, we endure,when people lie about us, we answer in a friendly manner. We are the world’s dirt and scum, even now.

The people also stood there watching, but the rulers ridiculed him, saying,“ He saved others. Let him save himself if he is the Christ of God, his chosen one!”The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine,

Now when they heard about the resurrection from the dead, some began to scoff, but others said,“ We will hear you again about this.”

And others experienced mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.

“ The LORD has made you priest in place of Jehoiada. He has put you in charge in the LORD’s temple of controlling any lunatic who pretends to be a prophet. And it is your duty to put any such person in the stocks with an iron collar around his neck.

Why must I continually suffer such painful anguish? Why must I endure the sting of their insults like an incurable wound? Will you let me down when I need you like a brook one goes to for water, but that cannot be relied on?”

He went up from there to Bethel. As he was traveling up the road, some young boys came out of the city and made fun of him, saying,“ Go on up, baldy! Go on up, baldy!”

And Moses said to the LORD,“ Why have you afflicted your servant? Why have I not found favor in your sight, that you lay the burden of this entire people on me?Did I conceive this entire people? Did I give birth to them, that you should say to me,‘ Carry them in your arms, as a foster father bears a nursing child,’ to the land which you swore to their fathers?From where shall I get meat to give to this entire people, for they cry to me,‘ Give us meat, that we may eat!’I am not able to bear this entire people alone, because it is too heavy for me!But if you are going to deal with me like this, then kill me immediately. If I have found favor in your sight then do not let me see my trouble.”

But when I stumbled, they rejoiced and gathered together; they gathered together to ambush me. They tore at me without stopping to rest.When I tripped, they taunted me relentlessly, and tried to bite me.

The time of judgment is about to arrive! The time of retribution is imminent! Let Israel know! The prophet is considered a fool– the inspired man is viewed as a madman– because of the multitude of your sins and your intense animosity.

Moses returned to the LORD, and said,“ Lord, why have you caused trouble for this people? Why did you ever send me?From the time I went to speak to Pharaoh in your name, he has caused trouble for this people, and you have certainly not rescued them!”

I answered,“ Oh, Lord GOD, I really do not know how to speak well enough for that, for I am too young.”The LORD said to me,“ Do not say,‘ I am too young.’ But go to whomever I send you and say whatever I tell you.Do not be afraid of those to whom I send you, for I will be with you to protect you,” says the LORD.
