Scripture Content

O Lord, you have deceived me, and I was deceived; you are stronger than I, and you have prevailed. I have become a laughingstock all the day; everyone mocks me. If I say, I will not mention him, or speak any more in his name, there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones.
