< Ezequiel 2 >

1 “Levántate, hijo del hombre, porque quiero hablar contigo”, me dijo.
And he said to me, Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak to you.
2 Mientras me hablaba, el Espíritu entró en mí y me hizo levantarme. Le escuché mientras me hablaba.
And the spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet, that I heard him that spoke to me.
3 “Hijo de hombre”, me dijo, “te envío al pueblo de Israel, una nación desobediente que se ha rebelado contra mí. Ellos y sus antepasados han seguido rebelándose contra mí, hasta hoy.
And he said to me, Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even to this very day.
4 Son cabezas de cerdo; son niños de corazón duro. Te envío a decirles que esto es lo que dice el Señor Dios.
For they are impudent children and stiff hearted. I do send you to them; and you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD.
5 “Tanto si escuchan como si no, pues son un pueblo rebelde, se darán cuenta de que ha llegado a ellos un profeta.
And 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.
6 “Hijo de hombre, no tengas miedo de ellos ni de lo que digan. No tengas miedo aunque estés rodeado de zarzas y espinas, aunque vivas entre escorpiones. No tengas miedo de lo que digan ni te desanimes por la forma en que te miran, aunque sean una familia rebelde.
And you, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
7 Sólo diles lo que yo digo, te escuchen o no, porque son rebeldes.
And you shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they are most rebellious.
8 “En cuanto a ti, hijo de hombre, presta atención a lo que te digo. No seas rebelde como esos rebeldes. Abre la boca y come lo que te voy a dar”.
But you, son of man, hear what I say to you; Be not you rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that I give you.
9 Levanté la vista y vi una mano extendida hacia mí que sostenía un pergamino.
And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent to me; and, see, a roll of a book was therein;
10 Lo extendió frente a mí, y allí, escritas tanto en el anverso como en el reverso, había palabras de dolor, luto y tragedia.
And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
