Jeremiah 20:9

Then I said: I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name: and there came in my heart as a burning fire, shut up in my bones, and I was wearied, not being able to bear it.

And there, or "for," etc. I was grieved continually. (Sanctius) --- I could not however refrain from speaking, Acts 17:16., and 1 Corinthians 9:16., and Job 32:18.
