Moreover he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, eatH398 that thou findestH4672; eatH398 this rollH4039, and goH3212 speakH1696 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
So I openedH6605 my mouthH6310, and he caused me to eatH398 that rollH4039.
And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, cause thy bellyH990 to eatH398, and fillH4390 thy bowelsH4578 with this rollH4039 that I giveH5414 thee. Then did I eatH398 it; and it was in my mouthH6310 as honeyH1706 for sweetnessH4966.
And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, goH3212, getH935 thee unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and speakH1696 with my wordsH1697 unto them.
For thou art not sentH7971 to a peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, but to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; {of a…: Heb. deep of lip, and heavy of tongue}
Not to manyH7227 peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, whose wordsH1697 thou canst not understandH8085. Surely, had I sentH7971 thee to them, they would have hearkenedH8085 unto thee. {of a…: Heb. deep of lip, and heavy of language} {Surely…: or, If I had sent thee, etc. would they not have hearkened unto thee?}
But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto thee; for they willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto me: for all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are impudentH2389+H4696 and hardheartedH7186+H3820. {impudent…: Heb. stiff of forehead, and hard of heart}
Behold, I have madeH5414 thy faceH6440 strongH2389 againstH5980 their facesH6440, and thy foreheadH4696 strongH2389 againstH5980 their foreheadsH4696.
As an adamantH8068 harderH2389 than flintH6864 have I madeH5414 thy foreheadH4696: fearH3372 them not, neither be dismayedH2865 at their looksH6440, though they be a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.
Moreover he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, all my wordsH1697 that I shall speakH1696 unto thee receiveH3947 in thine heartH3824, and hearH8085 with thine earsH241.
And goH3212, getH935 thee to them of the captivityH1473, unto the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, and speakH1696 unto them, and tellH559 them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; whether they will hearH8085, or whether they will forbearH2308.
Then the spiritH7307 took me upH5375, and I heardH8085 behindH310 me a voiceH6963 of a greatH1419 rushingH7494, saying, BlessedH1288 be the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 from his placeH4725.
I heard also the noiseH6963 of the wingsH3671 of the living creaturesH2416 that touchedH5401 oneH802 anotherH269, and the noiseH6963 of the wheelsH212 over againstH5980 them, and a noiseH6963 of a greatH1419 rushingH7494. {touched: Heb. kissed}
So the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375, and took me awayH3947, and I wentH3212 in bitternessH4751, in the heatH2534 of my spiritH7307; but the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was strongH2388 upon me. {in bitterness: Heb. bitter} {heat: Heb. hot anger}
Then I cameH935 to them of the captivityH1473 at TelabibH8512, that dweltH3427 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529, and I satH3427 where they satH3427, and remainedH3427 there astonishedH8074 amongH8432 them sevenH7651 daysH3117.
And it came to pass at the endH7097 of sevenH7651 daysH3117, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, I have madeH5414 thee a watchmanH6822 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: therefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 at my mouthH6310, and give them warningH2094 from me.
When I sayH559 unto the wickedH7563, Thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191; and thou givest him not warningH2094, nor speakestH1696 to warnH2094 the wickedH7563 from his wickedH7563 wayH1870, to save his lifeH2421; the same wickedH7563 man shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thine handH3027.
Yet if thou warnH2094 the wickedH7563, and he turnH7725 not from his wickednessH7562, nor from his wickedH7563 wayH1870, he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.
AgainH7725, When a righteousH6662 man doth turnH7725 from his righteousnessH6664, and commitH6213 iniquityH5766, and I layH5414 a stumblingblockH4383 beforeH6440 him, he shall dieH4191: because thou hast not given him warningH2094, he shall dieH4191 in his sinH2403, and his righteousnessH6666 which he hath doneH6213 shall not be rememberedH2142; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thine handH3027. {righteousness which: Heb. righteousnesses}
Nevertheless if thou warnH2094 the righteousH6662 man, that the righteousH6662 sinH2398 not, and he doth not sinH2398, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, because he is warnedH2094; also thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.
And the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was there upon me; and he saidH559 unto me, AriseH6965, go forthH3318 into the plainH1237, and I will there talkH1696 with thee.
Then I aroseH6965, and went forthH3318 into the plainH1237: and, behold, the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 stoodH5975 there, as the gloryH3519 which I sawH7200 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529: and I fellH5307 on my faceH6440.
Then the spiritH7307 enteredH935 into me, and setH5975 me upon my feetH7272, and spakeH1696 with me, and saidH559 unto me, GoH935, shutH5462 thyself withinH8432 thine houseH1004.
But thou, O sonH1121 of manH120, behold, they shall putH5414 bandsH5688 upon thee, and shall bindH631 thee with them, and thou shalt not go outH3318 amongH8432 them:
And I will make thy tongueH3956 cleaveH1692 to the roof of thy mouthH2441, that thou shalt be dumbH481, and shalt not be to them a reproverH376+H3198: for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004. {a reprover: Heb. a man reproving}
But when I speakH1696 withH854 thee, I will openH6605 thy mouthH6310, and thou shalt sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; He that hearethH8085, let him hearH8085; and he that forbearethH2310, let him forbearH2308: for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.
