Ezekiel:2:1-3:15
web@Ezekiel:2:1 @ He said to me, Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.
web@Ezekiel:2:2 @ The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.
web@Ezekiel:2:3 @ He said to me, Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.
web@Ezekiel:2:4 @ The children are impudent and stiff-hearted: I am sending you to them; and you shall tell them, Thus says the Lord {The word translated "Lord" is "Adonai."} Yahweh.
web@Ezekiel:2:5 @ They, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house), yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.
web@Ezekiel:2:6 @ You, son of man, don't be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: don't be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
web@Ezekiel:2:7 @ You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.
web@Ezekiel:2:8 @ But you, son of man, hear what I tell you; don't be rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that which I give you.
web@Ezekiel:2:9 @ When I looked, behold, a hand was put forth to me; and, behold, a scroll of a book was therein;
web@Ezekiel:2:10 @ He spread it before me: and it was written within and without; and there were written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
web@Ezekiel:3:1 @ He said to me, Son of man, eat that which you find. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.
web@Ezekiel:3:2 @ So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat the scroll.
web@Ezekiel:3:3 @ He said to me, Son of man, cause your belly to eat, and fill your bowels with this scroll that I give you. Then I ate it; and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
web@Ezekiel:3:4 @ He said to me, Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
web@Ezekiel:3:5 @ For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel;
web@Ezekiel:3:6 @ not to many peoples of a strange speech and of a hard language, whose words you can not understand. Surely, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.
web@Ezekiel:3:7 @ But the house of Israel will not listen to you; for they will not listen to me: for all the house of Israel are obstinate {Literally, have a hard forehead} and hard-hearted.
web@Ezekiel:3:8 @ Behold, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your forehead hard against their foreheads.
web@Ezekiel:3:9 @ As an adamant harder than flint have I made your forehead: don't be afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
web@Ezekiel:3:10 @ Moreover he said to me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.
web@Ezekiel:3:11 @ Go to them of the captivity, to the children of your people, and speak to them, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
web@Ezekiel:3:12 @ Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing, saying, Blessed be the glory of Yahweh from his place.
web@Ezekiel:3:13 @ I heard the noise of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, even the noise of a great rushing.
web@Ezekiel:3:14 @ So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and the hand of Yahweh was strong on me.
web@Ezekiel:3:15 @ Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel Aviv, that lived by the river Chebar, and to where they lived; and I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days.
