Ezekiel 3:1
|
|
Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that
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
that 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 an hard language, but to the house of Israel; |
| |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:6
|
|
Not to many people of a strange speech and of
an hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee
to them, they would have hearkened 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 impudent
and hardhearted. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:8
|
|
Behold, I have made thy face strong against
their faces, and thy forehead strong 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 be
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 thine 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 God; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:12
|
|
Then the spirit took me up, and I heard behind
me a voice of a great rushing, saying, Blessed be the glory of the LORD from his
place. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:13
|
|
I heard also the noise of the wings of the living
creatures that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels over against them,
and a 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; but the hand of the LORD was
strong upon me. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:15
|
|
Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib,
that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there
astonished among them seven days. |
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:16
|
|
And it came to pass at the end of seven days,
that the word of the LORD 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 thine 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 stumbling-block before him,
he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin,
and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood
will I require at thine 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 is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:22
|
|
And the hand of the LORD 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 the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the
river of Chebar: and I fell on my face. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:24
|
|
Then the spirit entered into me, and set me
upon my feet, and spake with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine
house. |
|
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 3:25
|
|
But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put
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 God; He that heareth,
let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious
house. |
