And he said to me O son of humankind stand on feet your so I may speak you.
2 Mmụọ ahụ banyere nʼime m mgbe ahụ ọ na-ekwu okwu, mee ka m guzo ọtọ nʼụkwụ m abụọ. Anụrụ m ka ọ gwara m okwu.
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.

5 Ma ha gere gị ntị, ma ha egeghị gị ntị (ha bụ ndị na-enupu isi), ihe dị mkpa bụ na ha ga-amata na onye amụma anọọla nʼetiti ha.
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 Ma gị nwa nke mmadụ, atụla ha egwu. Ka ụjọ okwu si ha nʼọnụ ghara ịtụkwa gị. Atụla egwu, ọ bụladị ma a sị na ogwu na uke gbara gị gburugburu, ọ bụladị ma a sị na i bi nʼetiti ụmụ akpị. Ka ụjọ ghara ịtụ gị nʼihi okwu ọnụ ha, ekwekwala ka ha menye gị egwu, nʼihi na ha bụ ndị na-enupu isi.

9 Otu mgbe ahụ, elere m anya hụ aka e setịpụrụ, nke ji akwụkwọ a fụkọrọ afụkọ,
And I saw and there! a hand [was] stretched out to me and there! [was] in it a scroll of a document.
10 nke e dekwara ihe nʼime ya, ihu na azụ ya. Aka ahụ ji ya gbasapụrụ ya mee ka m hụ ihe e dere nʼime ya. Ọ bụ okwu ịkwa akwa na iru ụjụ na ahụhụ.
