Ezekiel 2
And He said to me, “Son of man, astand on your feet, and I will speak to you.” 2 Then athe Spirit entered me when He spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard Him who spoke to me. 3 And He said to me: “Son of man, I am sending you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has arebelled against Me; bthey and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this very day. 4 aFor they are impudent and stubborn children. I am sending you to them, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God.’ 5 aAs for them, whether they hear or whether they refuse—for they are a brebellious house—yet they cwill know that a prophet has been among them.
6 “And you, son of man, ado not be afraid of them nor be afraid of their words, though bbriers and thorns are with you and you dwell among scorpions; cdo not be afraid of their words or dismayed by their looks, dthough they are a rebellious house. 7 aYou shall speak My words to them, whether they hear or whether they refuse, for they are rebellious. 8 But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Do not be rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and aeat what I give you.”
9 Now when I looked, there was aa hand stretched out to me; and behold, ba scroll of a book was in it. 10 Then He spread it before me; and there was writing on the inside and on the outside, and written on it were lamentations and mourning and woe.
