Ezekiel 2

1 He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you."

And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, stand vp vpon thy feete, and I wil speake vnto thee.

2 The Ruach entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.

And the Spirite entred into me, when he had spoken vnto me, and set me vpon my feete, so that I heard him that spake vnto me.

3 He said to me, "Son of man, I send you to the house 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.

And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: for they and their fathers haue rebelled against me, euen vnto this very day.

4 The children are obstinate and hardhearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, 'Thus says the LORD.'

For they are impudent children, and stiffe hearted: I do send thee vnto them, and thou shalt say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God.

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.

But surely they will not heare, neither in deede will they cease: for they are a rebellious house: yet shall they knowe that there hath bene a Prophet among them.

6 You, son of man, do not be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: do not be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.

And thou sonne of man, feare them not, neither be afraide of their wordes, although rebels, and thornes be with thee, and thou remainest with scorpions: feare not their wordes, nor be afrayde at their lookes, for they are a rebellious house.

7 You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.

Therefore thou shalt speake my words vnto them: but surely they will not heare, neither will they in deede cease: for they are rebellious.

8 But you, son of man, hear what I tell you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that which I give you."

But thou sonne of man, heare what I say vnto thee: be not thou rebellious, like this rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eate that I giue thee.

9 When I looked, look, a hand was put forth to me; and, look, a written scroll was in it.

And when I looked vp, beholde, an hande was sent vnto me, and loe, a roule of a booke was therein.

10 He spread it before me: and it was written within and without; and there were written in it lamentations, and mourning, and woe.

And he spred it before me, and it was written within and without, and there was written therein, Lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
