Ezekiel 3:1
|
|
And he said unto me, Son of man, eat that which
thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:2
|
|
So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat
the roll. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:3
|
|
And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly
to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it;
and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:4
|
|
And
he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak
with my words unto them. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:5
|
|
For thou art not sent to a people of a strange
speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel; |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:6
|
|
not to many peoples of a strange speech and
of a hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, if I sent thee
to them, they would hearken unto thee. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:7
|
|
But the house of Israel will not hearken unto
thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel are of hard
forehead and of a stiff heart. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:8
|
|
Behold, I have made thy face hard against their
faces, and thy forehead hard against their foreheads. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:9
|
|
As an adamant harder than flint have I made
thy forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they are
a rebellious house. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:10
|
|
Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my
words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear with thine ears.
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:11
|
|
And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto
the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the
Lord Jehovah; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:12
|
|
Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind
me the voice of a great rushing, saying , Blessed be the glory of Jehovah from
his place. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:13
|
|
And I heard the noise of the wings of the living
creatures as they touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them,
even the noise of a great rushing. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:14
|
|
So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away;
and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and the hand of Jehovah was
strong upon me. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:15
|
|
Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel-abib,
that dwelt by the river Chebar, and to where they dwelt; and I sat there overwhelmed
among them seven days. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:16
|
|
And it came to pass at the end of seven days,
that the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:17
|
|
Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto
the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning
from me. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:18
|
|
When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely
die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his
wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but
his blood will I require at thy hand. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:19
|
|
Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not
from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but
thou hast delivered thy soul. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:20
|
|
Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his
righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he
shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and
his righteous deeds which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood
will I require at thy hand. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:21
|
|
Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man,
that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because
he took warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:22
|
|
And the hand of Jehovah was there upon me; and
he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with thee. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:23
|
|
Then I arose, and went forth into the plain:
and, behold, the glory of Jehovah stood there, as the glory which I saw by the
river Chebar; and I fell on my face. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:24
|
|
Then the Spirit entered into me, and set me
upon my feet; and he spake with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within
thy house. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:25
|
|
But thou, son of man, behold, they shall lay
bands upon thee, and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among
them: |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:26
|
|
and I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof
of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover; for
they are a rebellious house. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:27
|
|
But when I speak with thee, I will open thy
mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: He that heareth,
let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious
house. |
