1And he said559 unto me, Son1121 of man120, stand5975 upon thy feet7272, and I will speak1696 unto thee.
2And the spirit7307 entered935 into me when he spake1696 unto me, and set5975 me upon my feet7272, that I heard8085 him that spake1696 unto me.
3And he said559 unto me, Son1121 of man120, I send7971 thee to the children1121 of Israel3478, to a rebellious4775 nation1471 that hath rebelled4775 against me: they and their fathers1 have transgressed6586 against me, even unto this very6106 day3117.
4For they are impudent7186 6440 children1121 and stiffhearted2389 3820. I do send7971 thee unto them; and thou shalt say559 unto them, Thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD3069.
5And they, whether they will hear8085, or whether they will forbear2308, (for they are a rebellious4805 house1004,) yet shall know3045 that there hath been a prophet5030 among8432 them.
6And thou, son1121 of man120, be not afraid3372 of them, neither be afraid3372 of their words1697, though briers5621 and thorns5544 be with thee, and thou dost dwell3427 among scorpions6137: be not afraid3372 of their words1697, nor be dismayed2865 at their looks6440, though they be a rebellious4805 house1004.
7And thou shalt speak1696 my words1697 unto them, whether they will hear8085, or whether they will forbear2308: for they are most rebellious4805.
8But thou, son1121 of man120, hear8085 what I say1696 unto thee; Be not1961 thou rebellious4805 like that rebellious4805 house1004: open6475 thy mouth6310, and eat398 that I give5414 thee.
9And when I looked7200, behold, an hand3027 was sent7971 unto me; and, lo, a roll4039 of a book5612 was therein;
10And he spread6566 it before6440 me; and it was written3789 within6440 and without268: and there was written3789 therein lamentations7015, and mourning1899, and woe1958.
