< Ezekiel 2 >
1 He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you."
And he said to me O son of humankind stand on feet your so I may speak you.
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.
And it came in me a spirit just when he spoke to me and it made stand up me on feet my and I heard [one who] spoke to 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 to me O son of humankind [am] sending I you to [the] people of Israel to nations rebellious which they have rebelled against me they and ancestors their they have transgressed against me until [the] substance of the day this.
4 The children are obstinate and hardhearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, 'Thus says YHWH.'
And the children [are] stern of face and hard of heart I [am] sending you to them and you will say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh.
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.
And they whether they will listen and or they will refrain for [are] a house of rebellion they and they will know that a prophet he has been in midst of 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 you O son of humankind may not you be afraid from them and from words their may not you be afraid for nettles and thorns with you and to scorpions you [are] dwelling from words their may not you be afraid and from faces their may not you be dismayed for [are] a house of rebellion they.
7 You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.
And you will speak words my to them whether they will listen and or they will refrain for [are] rebellious they.
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."
And you O son of humankind hear [that] which I [am] speaking to you may not you be rebellious like [the] house of rebellion open mouth your and eat [that] which I [am] giving to you.
9 When I looked, look, a hand was put forth to me; and, look, a written scroll was in it.
And I saw and there! a hand [was] stretched out to me and there! [was] in it a scroll of a document.
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 spread out it before me and it [was] written face and back and [was] written to it lamentations and moaning and wailing.
