Ezekiel 2

1And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

1And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

1This was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the Lord, and I saw, and I fell upon my face, and I heard the voice of one that spoke, and he said to me: Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak to thee.

2And the Spirit entered into me when he spoke unto me, and set me upon my feet; and I heard him that spoke unto me.

2And the Spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet; and I heard him that spake unto me.

2And the spirit entered into me after that he spoke to me, and he set me upon my feet: and I heard him speaking to me,

3And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to nations that are rebellious, which have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me unto this very day;

3And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to nations that are rebellious, which have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me even unto this very day.

3And saying: Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious people, that hath revolted from me, they, and their fathers, have transgressed my covenant even unto this day.

4and these children are impudent and hard-hearted: I am sending thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah.

4And the children are impudent and stiffhearted: I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah.

4And they to whom I send thee are children of a hard face, and of an obstinate heart: and thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord God:

5And they, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear — for they are a rebellious house — yet shall they know that there hath been a prophet among them.

5And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear (for they are a rebellious house), yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them.

5If so be they at least will hear, and if so be they will forbear, for they are a provoking house: and they shall know that there hath been a prophet in the midst of them.

6And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, and be not afraid of their words; for briars and thorns are with thee, and thou dwellest among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, and be not dismayed at their faces; for they are a rebellious house.

6And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.

6And thou, O son of man, fear not, neither be thou afraid of their words: for thou art among unbelievers and destroyers, and thou dwellest with scorpions. Fear not their words, neither be thou dismayed at their looks: for they are a provoking house.

7And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear or whether they will forbear; for they are rebellious.

7And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.

7And thou shalt speak my words to them, if perhaps they will hear, and forbear: for they provoke me to anger.

8And thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that I give thee.

8But thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that which I give thee.

8But thou, O son of man, hear all that I say to thee: and do not thou provoke me, as that house provoketh me: open thy mouth, and eat what I give thee.

9And I looked, and behold, a hand was put forth toward me; and behold, a roll of a book therein.

9And when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;

9And I looked, and behold, a hand was sent to me, wherein was a book rolled up: and he spread it before me, and it was written within and without: and there were written in it lamentations, and canticles, and woe.

10And he spread it out before me; and it was written within and without; and there were written in it lamentations, and mourning, and woe.

10and he spread it before me: and it was written within and without; and there were written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
