Ezequiel 2
1 Y díjome: Hijo del hombre, está sobre tus pies, y hablaré contigo.
This was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw, and I fell on my face, and I heard the voice of someone speaking. And he said to me: “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”
2 Y entró espíritu en mí después que me habló; y me afirmó sobre mis pies, y oí al que me hablaba.
And after this was spoken to me, the Spirit entered into me, and he set me on my feet. And I heard him speaking to me,
3 Y díjome: Hijo del hombre, yo te envió a los hijos de Israel, a gentes rebeldes, que se rebelaron contra mí: ellos y sus padres se rebelaron contra mí, hasta este mismo día.
and saying: “Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to an apostate nation, which has withdrawn from me. They and their fathers have betrayed my covenant, even to this day.
4 Y a hijos duros de rostros, y fuertes de corazón yo te envío; y decirles has: Así dijo el Señor Jehová.
And those to whom I am sending you are sons with a hard face and an unyielding heart. And you shall say to them: ‘Thus says the Lord God.’
5 Y ellos no oirán, ni cesarán, porque son casa rebelde: mas conocerán que hubo profeta entre ellos.
Perhaps it may be that they will hear, and perhaps they may be quieted. For they are a provoking house. And they shall know that there has been a prophet in their midst.
6 Y tú, o! hijo del hombre, no temas de ellos, ni hayas miedo de sus palabras, porque son rebeldes; y espinos viven contigo, y tu moras con abrojos: no hayas miedo de sus palabras, ni temas delante de ellos, porque son casa rebelde.
But as for you, son of man, you should not fear them, and you should not dread their words. For you are among unbelievers and subversives, and you are living with scorpions. You should not fear their words, and you should not dread their faces. For they are a provoking house.
7 Hablarles has mis palabras, mas no oirán, ni cesarán, porque son rebeldes.
Therefore, you shall speak my words to them, so that perhaps they may hear and be quieted. For they are provoking.
8 Mas tú, hijo del hombre, oye lo que yo te hablo: No seas rebelde como la casa rebelde: abre tu boca, y come lo que yo te doy.
But as for you, son of man, listen to all that I say to you. And do not choose to be provoking, as that house is a provoker. Open your mouth, and eat whatever I give to you.”
9 Y miré, y, he aquí, una mano me fue enviada, y en ella había un libro envuelto.
And I looked, and behold: a hand was put forth toward me; there was a scroll rolled up in it.
10 Y extendióle delante de mí, y estaba escrito delante y detrás; y estaban en él escritas endechas, y lamentación, y ayes.
And he spread it out before me, and there was writing on the inside and on the outside. And there were written in it lamentations, and verses, and woes.
