# laughingstock
This is a person whom others laugh at and make fun of.
# called out and proclaimed

# Yahweh's word has become for me reproach and mocking every day
Here "word" refers to the message of Yahweh. The words "reproach" and "mocking" can be translated with verbal phrases. AT: "people reproach and mock me every day because I proclaim Yahweh's message" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns]])
