Ezekiel 2:1--3:11

2:1

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

stand
<05975> (8798)

upon thy feet
<07272>_,

and I will speak
<01696> (8762)

unto thee.

2:2

And the spirit
<07307>

entered
<0935> (8799)

into me when he spake
<01696> (8765)

unto me, and set
<05975> (8686)

me upon my feet
<07272>_,

that I heard
<08085> (8799)

him that spake
<01696> (8693)

unto me.

2:3

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

I send
<07971> (8802)

thee to the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

to a rebellious
<04775> (8802)

nation
<01471>

that hath rebelled
<04775> (8804)

against me: they and their fathers
<01>

have transgressed
<06586> (8804)

against me, [even] unto this very
<06106>

day
<03117>_.

{nation: Heb. nations}

2:4

For [they are] impudent
<07186> <06440>

children
<01121>

and stiffhearted
<02389> <03820>_.

I do send
<07971> (8802)

thee unto them; and thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_.

{impudent: Heb. hard of face}

2:5

And they, whether they will hear
<08085> (8799)_,

or whether they will forbear
<02308> (8799)_,

(for they [are] a rebellious
<04805>

house
<01004>,)

yet shall know
<03045> (8804)

that there hath been a prophet
<05030>

among
<08432>

them.

2:6

And thou, son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

be not afraid
<03372> (8799)

of them, neither be afraid
<03372> (8799)

of their words
<01697>_,

though briers
<05621>

and thorns
<05544>

[be] with thee, and thou dost dwell
<03427> (8802)

among scorpions
<06137>_:

be not afraid
<03372> (8799)

of their words
<01697>_,

nor be dismayed
<02865> (8735)

at their looks
<06440>_,

though they [be] a rebellious
<04805>

house
<01004>_.

{briers...: or, rebels}

2:7

And thou shalt speak
<01696> (8765)

my words
<01697>

unto them, whether they will hear
<08085> (8799)_,

or whether they will forbear
<02308> (8799)_:

for they [are] most rebellious
<04805>_.

{most...: Heb. rebellion}

2:8

But thou, son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

hear
<08085> (8798)

what I say
<01696> (8764)

unto thee; Be not
<01961> (8799)

thou rebellious
<04805>

like that rebellious
<04805>

house
<01004>_:

open
<06475> (8798)

thy mouth
<06310>_,

and eat
<0398> (8798)

that I give
<05414> (8802)

thee.

2:9

And when I looked
<07200> (8799)_,

behold, an hand
<03027>

[was] sent
<07971> (8803)

unto me; and, lo, a roll
<04039>

of a book
<05612>

[was] therein;

2:10

And he spread
<06566> (8799)

it before
<06440>

me; and it [was] written
<03789> (8803)

within
<06440>

and without
<0268>_:

and [there was] written
<03789> (8803)

therein lamentations
<07015>_,

and mourning
<01899>_,

and woe
<01958>_.

3:1

Moreover he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

eat
<0398> (8798)

that thou findest
<04672> (8799)_;

eat
<0398> (8798)

this roll
<04039>_,

and go
<03212> (8798)

speak
<01696> (8761)

unto the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_.

3:2

So I opened
<06605> (8799)

my mouth
<06310>_,

and he caused me to eat
<0398> (8686)

that roll
<04039>_.

3:3

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

cause thy belly
<0990>

to eat
<0398> (8686)_,

and fill
<04390> (8762)

thy bowels
<04578>

with this roll
<04039>

that I give
<05414> (8802)

thee. Then did I eat
<0398> (8799)

[it]; and it was in my mouth
<06310>

as honey
<01706>

for sweetness
<04966>_.

3:4

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

go
<03212> (8798)_,

get
<0935> (8798)

thee unto the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and speak
<01696> (8765)

with my words
<01697>

unto them.

3:5

For thou [art] not sent
<07971> (8803)

to a people
<05971>

of a strange
<06012>

speech
<08193>

and of an hard
<03515>

language
<03956>_,

[but] to the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_;

{of a...: Heb. deep of lip, and heavy of tongue}

3:6

Not to many
<07227>

people
<05971>

of a strange
<06012>

speech
<08193>

and of an hard
<03515>

language
<03956>_,

whose words
<01697>

thou canst not understand
<08085> (8799)_.

Surely, had I sent
<07971> (8804)

thee to them, they would have hearkened
<08085> (8799)

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?}

3:7

But the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

will
<014> (8799)

not hearken
<08085> (8800)

unto thee; for they will
<014> (8802)

not hearken
<08085> (8800)

unto me: for all the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

[are] impudent
<02389> <04696>

and hardhearted
<07186> <03820>_.

{impudent...: Heb. stiff of forehead, and hard of heart}

3:8

Behold, I have made
<05414> (8804)

thy face
<06440>

strong
<02389>

against
<05980>

their faces
<06440>_,

and thy forehead
<04696>

strong
<02389>

against
<05980>

their foreheads
<04696>_.

3:9

As an adamant
<08068>

harder
<02389>

than flint
<06864>

have I made
<05414> (8804)

thy forehead
<04696>_:

fear
<03372> (8799)

them not, neither be dismayed
<02865> (8735)

at their looks
<06440>_,

though they [be] a rebellious
<04805>

house
<01004>_.

3:10

Moreover he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

all my words
<01697>

that I shall speak
<01696> (8762)

unto thee receive
<03947> (8798)

in thine heart
<03824>_,

and hear
<08085> (8798)

with thine ears
<0241>_.

3:11

And go
<03212> (8798)_,

get
<0935> (8798)

thee to them of the captivity
<01473>_,

unto the children
<01121>

of thy people
<05971>_,

and speak
<01696> (8765)

unto them, and tell
<0559> (8804)

them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

whether they will hear
<08085> (8799)_,

or whether they will forbear
<02308> (8799)_.
