NASB Bible

Ezekiel 2

The Prophet's Call

1

Then He said to me, "Son of man,  astand on your feet that I may speak with you!"

2

As He spoke to me the  aSpirit entered me and set me on my feet; and I heard Him speaking to me.

3

Then He said to me, "Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to a rebellious people who have  arebelled against Me;  bthey and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this very day.

4

"I am sending you to them who are  1 astubborn and obstinate children, and you shall say to them, `Thus says the Lord  2GOD.'

5

"As for them,  awhether they listen or  1not--for they are a rebellious house--they will  bknow that a prophet has been among them.

6

"And you, son of man,  aneither fear them nor fear their words, though  bthistles and thorns are with you and you sit on scorpions; neither fear their words nor be dismayed at their presence, for they are a rebellious house.

7

"But you shall  aspeak My words to them  bwhether they listen or  1not, for they are rebellious.

8

"Now you, son of man, listen to what I am speaking to you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth and  aeat what I am giving you."

9

Then I looked, and behold, a  ahand was extended to me; and lo, a  1 bscroll was in it.

10

When He spread it out before me, it was written on the front and back, and written on it were lamentations, mourning and  awoe.
