New American Standard Bible 2020

The Prophet’s Call

1Then He saidH559 to me, “SonH1121 of manH120, 1standH5975 on your feetH7272, and I will speakH1696 with you.” 2And as He spokeH1696 to me the 2SpiritH7307 enteredH935 me and setH5975 me on my feetH7272; and I heardH8085 Him speakingH1696 to me. 3Then He saidH559 to me, “SonH1121 of manH120, I am sendingH7971 you to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, to a rebelliousH4775 peopleH1471 whoH834 have 3rebelledH4775 against Me; 4they and their fathersH1 have revoltedH6586 against Me to thisH2088 veryH6106 dayH3117. 4So I am sendingH7971 you to those who are 56impudentH7186H6440 and obstinateH2389H3820 childrenH1121, and you shall sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 7GodH3068 saysH559:’ 5As for them, 8whetherH518 they listenH8085 orH518 9not--for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004--they will 10knowH3045 that a prophetH5030 has beenH1961 amongH8432 them. 6And as for you, sonH1121 of manH120, you are 11not to fearH3372 them norH408 fearH3372 their wordsH1697, thoughH3588 12thistlesH5621 and thornsH5544 are with you and you sitH3427 on scorpionsH6137; you are not to fearH3372 their wordsH1697 norH408 be dismayedH2865 at their presenceH6440, sinceH3588 they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004. 7But you shall 13speakH1696 My wordsH1697 to them 14whetherH518 they listenH8085 orH518 15not, for they are rebelliousH4805.

8“Now you, sonH1121 of manH120, listenH8085 to whatH834 I am speakingH1696 to you; do not be rebelliousH4805 like that rebelliousH4805 houseH1004. OpenH6475 your mouthH6310 wideH6475 and 16eatH398 whatH834 I am givingH5414 you.” 9Then I lookedH7200, and beholdH2009, a 17handH3027 was extendedH7971 to me; and beholdH2009, a 1819scrollH4039H5612 was in it. 10When He spreadH6566 it outH6566 beforeH6440 me, it was writtenH3789 on the frontH6440 and backH268, and writtenH3789 on it were songsH7015 ofH7015 mourningH7015, sighingH1899, and 20woeH1958.
