Moreover he said
unto me, Son
of man,
eat
that thou findest;
eat
this roll,
and go
speak
unto the house
of Israel.
So I opened
my mouth,
and he caused me to eat
that roll.
And he said
unto me, Son
of man,
cause thy belly
to eat,
and fill
thy bowels
with this roll
that I give
thee. Then did I eat
it; and it was in my mouth
as honey
for sweetness.

And he said
unto me, Son

go,
get
thee unto the house
of Israel,
and speak
with my words
unto them.
For thou art not sent
to a people
of a strange
speech
and of an hard
language,
but to the house
of Israel;
Not to many
people
of a strange
speech
and of an hard
language,
whose words
thou canst not understand.
Surely, had I sent
thee to them, they would have hearkened
unto thee.

As an adamant

Moreover he said
unto me, Son
of man,
all my words
that I shall speak

and hear
with thine ears.
And go,
get
thee to them of the captivity,
unto the children

unto them, and tell
them, Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;

or whether they will forbear.

Then the spirit
took me up,
and I heard
behind
me a voice
of a great
rushing,
saying, Blessed

from his place.
I heard also the noise

So the spirit
lifted me up,
and took me away,
and I went
in bitterness,
in the heat
of my spirit;
but the hand
of the LORD
was strong
upon me.
Then I came
to them of the captivity
at Telabib,
that dwelt
by the river
of Chebar,
and I sat
where they sat,
and remained
there astonished
among
them seven
days.

And it came to pass at the end
of seven
days,
that the word
of the LORD
came unto me, saying,
Son
of man,
I have made
thee a watchman
unto the house
of Israel:
therefore hear
the word
at my mouth,
and give them warning
from me.
When I say
unto the wicked,
Thou shalt surely
die;
and thou givest him not warning,
nor speakest
to warn
the wicked
from his wicked
way,
to save his life;
the same wicked
man shall die
in his iniquity;
but his blood
will I require
at thine hand.
Yet if thou warn
the wicked,
and he turn
not from his wickedness,
nor from his wicked
way,
he shall die
in his iniquity;
but thou hast delivered
thy soul.
Again,
When a righteous
man doth turn
from his righteousness,
and commit
iniquity,
and I lay
a stumblingblock
before
him, he shall die:
because thou hast not given him warning,
he shall die
in his sin,
and his righteousness
which he hath done
shall not be remembered;
but his blood
will I require
at thine hand.
Nevertheless if thou warn
the righteous
man, that the righteous
sin
not, and he doth not sin,
he shall surely
live,
because he is warned;
also thou hast delivered
thy soul.
And the hand
of the LORD
was there upon me; and he said
unto me, Arise,
go forth
into the plain,
and I will there talk
with thee.
Then I arose,
and went forth
into the plain:
and, behold, the glory
of the LORD
stood
there, as the glory
which I saw
by the river
of Chebar:
and I fell
on my face.

unto me, Go,

But thou, O son
of man,
behold, they shall put
bands
upon thee, and shall bind
thee with them, and thou shalt not go out
among
them:
And I will make thy tongue
cleave
to the roof of thy mouth,
that thou shalt be dumb,
and shalt not be to them a reprover:
for they are a rebellious
house.
But when I speak
with
thee, I will open
thy mouth,
and thou shalt say
unto them, Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
He that heareth,
let him hear;
and he that forbeareth,
let him forbear:
for they are a rebellious
house.
