The Book of the Prophet Ezekiel

 

Chapter 2

 

 

1.

 

And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

    
 
 

2.

 

And the Spirit entered into me when he spoke unto me, and set me upon my feet; and I heard him that spoke unto me.

    
 
 

3.

 

And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to nations that are rebellious, which have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me unto this very day;

    
 
 

4.

 

and these children are impudent and hard-hearted: I am sending thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah.

    
 
 

5.

 

And they, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear -- for they are a rebellious house -- yet shall they know that there hath been a prophet among them.

    
 
 

6.

 

And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, and be not afraid of their words; for briars and thorns are with thee, and thou dwellest among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, and be not dismayed at their faces; for they are a rebellious house.

    
 
 

7.

 

And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear; for they are rebellious.

    
 
 

8.

 

And thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that I give thee.

    
 
 

9.

 

And I looked, and behold, a hand was put forth toward me; and behold, a roll of a book therein.

    
 
 

10.

 

And he spread it out before me; and it was written within and without; and there were written in it lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
