‏ Jeremiah 20:3-4

v. 3: The next day, Pashur releases Jeremiah from the stocks. But Jeremiah has a message from God for him: The Lord has not called your name Pashur, but Magor-missabib (Terror on every side). God says Pashur will become a warning and a terror to himself and to others. God can make even the powerful feel afraid when they fight against His will.

v. 4: God continues, I will make thee a terror to thyself, and to all thy friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thine eyes shall behold it. Pashur will see the people he cares about be destroyed and carried away by the Babylonians. His position and power will not be able to protect anyone.
