Ezekiel 3




lesserot@Ezekiel:3:1 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest: eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:2 @ So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat this roll.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, feed thy belly, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I am giving unto thee. And I ate it; and it was in my mouth like honey in sweetness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:4 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:5 @ For not to a people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue art thou sent, but to the house of Israel;

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:6 @ Not to many people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would truly have hearkened unto thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:7 @ But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me; for all the house of Israel have a bold forehead, and a hard heart.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:8 @ Behold, I have made thy face strong against their face, and thy forehead strong against their forehead.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:9 @ As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: thou shalt not fear them, nor shalt thou be dismayed at their presence, though they be a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:10 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I will speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear with thy ears.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:11 @ And go, get thee to those in exile, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal: whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:12 @ Then a spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:13 @ also the sound of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the sound of the wheels at the same time with them, and the sound of a great rushing.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:14 @ So a spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I walked in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the inspiration of the Lord was strong upon me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:15 @ Then came I to the exiles at Tel–abib, who dwelt by the river Kebar, and I remained where they dwelt, and I remained there in a state of confusion among them seven days.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:16 @ And it came to pass at the end of seven days, That the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:17 @ Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and give them warning from me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:18 @ When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou dost not give him warning, and speakest not to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life: the same wicked man shall die through his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:19 @ But thou,––if thou hast warned the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way: he shall indeed die in his iniquity; but thou hast surely delivered thy soul.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:20 @ Again, When a righteous man do turn from his righteousness, and do what is wrong: then will I lay a stumbling–block before him, he shall die; yet if thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his acts of righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require from thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:21 @ But if thou hast truly warned him,––the righteous, that the righteous should not sin, and he doth not sin: he shall surely live, because he attended to the warning, and thou hast surely delivered thy own soul.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:22 @ And the inspiration of the Lord came there over me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the valley, and there will I speak with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:23 @ And I arose, and went forth into the valley; and, behold, there was the glory of the Lord standing, like that glory which I had seen by the river Kebar: and I fell down on my face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:24 @ Then entered a spirit into me, and placed me upright on my feet, and spoke with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself up within thy house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:25 @ But thou, O son of man, behold, they put ropes upon thee, and bind thee with them, that thou canst not go out among them:

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:26 @ And I will let thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not become to them a man who reproveth; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:27 @ But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forebear; for they are a rebellious family.
