Ezekiel 3:4-14

4And he saidH559 unto meH413, SonH1121 of manH120, goH935, getH935 thee unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and speakH1696 with my wordsH1697 unto them.

5For thou art notH3808 sentH7971 to a peopleH5971 of a strange speechH8193 and of an hardH1004 languageH3956, but to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478;

6notH3808 to manyH7227 peoplesH5971 of a strange speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, whoseH834 wordsH1697 thou canst notH3808 understandH8085. SurelyH518, ifH518 I sentH7971 thee to them, they would hearken unto thee.

7But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 will notH3808 hearken unto thee; for they will notH3808 hearken unto meH413: for allH3605 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are of an hardH7186 foreheadH4696 and of a stiff heartH3820.

8BeholdH2009, I have madeH5414 thy faceH6440 hardH2389 againstH6440 their facesH6440, and thy foreheadH4696 hardH2389 againstH6440 their foreheadsH4696.

9As an adamantH2389 harderH2389 thanH3808 flintH6864 have I madeH5414 thy foreheadH4696: fearH3372 them notH3808, neitherH3808 be dismayedH2865 at their looks, thoughH3588 they be a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.

10MoreoverH1696 he saidH559 unto meH413, SonH1121 of manH120, allH3605 my wordsH1697 that I shalt speakH1696 unto thee receiveH3947 in thine heartH3824, and hearH8085 with thine earsH241.

11And goH935, getH935 thee to them of the captivity, unto the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, and speakH1696 unto them, and tellH559 them, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136; whetherH518 they will hearH8085, or whetherH518 they will forbear.

12Then the spiritH7307 liftedH5375 meH6963 upH5375, and I heardH8085 behindH310 meH6963 the voiceH6963 of a greatH1419 rushing, sayingH6963, BlessedH1288 be the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 from his placeH4725.

13And I heardH6963 the noiseH6963 of the wingsH3671 of the livingH2416 creatures as they touched one anotherH269, and the noiseH6963 of the wheelsH212 besideH5980 them, even the noiseH6963 of a greatH1419 rushing.

14SoH3947 the spiritH7307 liftedH5375 meH5921 upH5375, and tookH3947 meH5921 awayH5375: and I wentH5375 in bitternessH4751, in the heatH2534 of my spiritH7307, and the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was strongH2388 uponH5921 meH5921.
