Ezekiel:3:2-15-
Seeker Overlay ON
*
So I opened my mouth ,
and he caused me to eat that roll .
*
And he said unto me ,
Son of man ,
cause thy belly to eat ,
and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee .
Then did I eat it ;
and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness .
*
And he said unto me ,
Son of man ,
go ,
get thee unto the house of Israel Yisra #
el #,
and speak with my words unto them .
*
For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language ,
but to the house of Israel Yisra #
el #;
*
Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language ,
whose words thou canst not understand .
Surely ,
had I sent thee to them ,
they would have hearkened unto thee .
*
But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee ;
for they will not hearken unto me :
for all the house of Israel are impudent chazaq #
and hardhearted qasheh #.
*
Behold ,
I have made thy face strong against their faces ,
and thy forehead strong against their foreheads .
*
As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead :
fear them not ,
neither be dismayed at their looks ,
though they be a rebellious house .
*
Moreover he said unto me ,
Son of man ,
all my words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thine heart ,
and hear with thine ears .
*
And go ,
get thee to them of the captivity ,
unto the children of thy people ,
and speak unto them ,
and tell them ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
whether they will hear ,
or whether they will forbear .
*
Then the spirit took me up ,
and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing ra #
ash #,
saying ,
Blessed be the glory of the LORD from his place .
*
I heard also the noise of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another ,
and the noise of the wheels over against them ,
and a noise of a great rushing ra #
ash #.
*
So the spirit lifted me up ,
and took me away ,
and I went in bitterness ,
in the heat of my spirit ;
but the hand of the LORD was strong upon me .
*
Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib Tel ,
that dwelt by the river of Chebar ,
and I sat where they sat ,
and remained there astonished among them seven days .
