|

###### 1

|
|
Then He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet that I may speak with you!"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 2
|
||
|
|
And as He spoke to me, the Spirit entered me and caused me to stand on my feet; and I heard _Him_ speaking to me.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 3
|
||
|
|
Then He said to me, "Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to a rebellious people who have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this very day.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 4
|
||
|
|
I am sending you to them who are stiff-faced and strong-hearted children, and you shall say to them, 'Thus says Lord Yahweh.'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 5
|
||
|
|
As for them, whether they listen or whether they refuse--for they are a rebellious house--they will know that a prophet has been among them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 6
|
||
|
|
Now as for you, son of man, do not fear them and do not fear their words, though thistles and briers are with you and you sit on scorpions; neither fear their words nor be dismayed at their presence, for they are a rebellious house.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 7
|
||
|
|
But you shall speak My words to them whether they listen or whether they refuse, for they are rebellious.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 8
|
||
|
|
"Now as for you, son of man, listen to what I am speaking to you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth and eat what I am giving you."
|

|

Then I looked, and behold, a hand was sent forth to me; and behold, a scroll _was_ in it.
|

Then He spread it out before me, and it was written on the front and back, and written on it were lamentations, sighing, and woe.
