Ezekiel 2

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

1It <FI>is<Fi> the appearance of the likeness of the honour of Jehovah, and I see, and fall on my face, and I hear a voice speaking, and He saith unto me, `Son of man, stand on thy feet, and I speak with 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 there doth come into me a spirit, when He hath spoken unto me, and it causeth me to stand on my feet, and I hear Him who is speaking unto 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 saith unto Me, `Son of man, I am sending thee unto the sons of Israel, unto nations who are rebels, who have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me, unto this self-same 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 sons <FI>are<Fi> brazen-faced and hard-hearted to whom I am sending thee, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah:

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 hear, or whether they forbear, for a rebellious house they <FI>are<Fi> --have known that a prophet hath been in their midst.

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.

6`And thou, son of man, thou art not afraid of them, yea, of their words thou art not afraid, for briers and thorns are with thee, and near scorpions thou art dwelling, of their words thou art not afraid, and of their faces thou art not affrighted, for they <FI>are<Fi> a rebellious house,

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

7And thou hast spoken My words unto them, whether they hear or whether they forbear, for they <FI>are<Fi> rebellious.

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.

8`And thou, son of man, hear that which I am speaking unto thee: Thou art not rebellious like the rebellious house, open thy mouth, and eat that which I am giving unto thee.'

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

9And I look, and lo, a hand <FI>is<Fi> sent forth unto me, and lo, in it a roll of a book,

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 spreadeth it before me, and it is written in front and behind, and written on it <FI>are<Fi> lamentations, and mourning, and woe!
