Ezekiel 3

1Moreover he saidH559 to me, SonH1121 of manH120, eatH398 what thou findestH4672; eatH398 this scrollH4039, and goH3212 speakH1696 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. 2So I openedH6605 my mouthH6310, and he caused me to eatH398 that scrollH4039. 3And he saidH559 to me, SonH1121 of manH120, cause thy stomachH990 to eatH398, and fillH4390 thy bodyH4578 with this scrollH4039 that I giveH5414 thee. Then did I eatH398 it ; and it was in my mouthH6310 as honeyH1706 for sweetnessH4966. 4And he saidH559 to me, SonH1121 of manH120, departH3212, goH935 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and speakH1696 with my wordsH1697 to them. 5For thou art not sentH7971 to a peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, but to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478;1 6Not to manyH7227 peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, whose wordsH1697 thou canst not understandH8085. Surely, had I sentH7971 thee to them, they would have hearkenedH8085 to thee.23 7But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 willH14 not hearkenH8085 to thee; for they willH14 not hearkenH8085 to me: for all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are impudentH2389H4696 and hardheartedH7186H3820.4 8Behold, I have madeH5414 thy faceH6440 strongH2389 againstH5980 their facesH6440, and thy foreheadH4696 strongH2389 againstH5980 their foreheadsH4696. 9As an adamantH8068 harderH2389 than flintH6864 have I madeH5414 thy foreheadH4696: fearH3372 them not, neither be dismayedH2865 at their looksH6440, though they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004. 10Moreover he saidH559 to me, SonH1121 of manH120, all my wordsH1697 that I shall speakH1696 to thee receiveH3947 in thy heartH3824, and hearH8085 with thy earsH241. 11And departH3212, goH935 to them of the captivityH1473, to the childrenH1121 of thy peopleH5971, and speakH1696 to them, and tellH559 them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; whether they will hearH8085, or whether they will forbearH2308. 12Then the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375, and I heardH8085 behindH310 me a voiceH6963 of a greatH1419 rushingH7494, saying, BlessedH1288 be the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 from his placeH4725. 13I heard also the noiseH6963 of the wingsH3671 of the living beingsH2416 that touchedH5401 oneH802 anotherH269, and the noiseH6963 of the wheelsH212 besideH5980 them, and the noiseH6963 of a greatH1419 rushingH7494.5 14So the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375, and took me awayH3947, and I wentH3212 in bitternessH4751, in the heatH2534 of my spiritH7307; but the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was strongH2388 upon me.67 15Then I cameH935 to them of the captivityH1473 at TelabibH8512, that dweltH3427 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529, and I satH3427 where they satH3427, and remainedH3427 there overwhelmedH8074 amongH8432 them sevenH7651 daysH3117.

16And it came to pass at the endH7097 of sevenH7651 daysH3117, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to me, sayingH559, 17SonH1121 of manH120, I have madeH5414 thee a watchmanH6822 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: therefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 at my mouthH6310, and give them warningH2094 from me. 18When I sayH559 to the wickedH7563, Thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191; and thou givest him not warningH2094, nor speakestH1696 to warnH2094 the wickedH7563 from his wickedH7563 wayH1870, to save his lifeH2421; the same wickedH7563 man shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thy handH3027. 19Yet if thou shalt warnH2094 the wickedH7563, and he will not turnH7725 from his wickednessH7562, nor from his wickedH7563 wayH1870, he shall dieH4191 in his iniquityH5771; but thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315. 20AgainH7725, When a righteousH6662 man doth turnH7725 from his righteousnessH6664, and commitH6213 iniquityH5766, and I layH5414 a stumblingblockH4383 beforeH6440 him, he shall dieH4191: because thou hast not given him warningH2094, he shall dieH4191 in his sinH2403, and his righteousnessH6666 which he hath doneH6213 shall not be rememberedH2142; but his bloodH1818 will I requireH1245 at thy handH3027.8 21Nevertheless if thou shalt warnH2094 the righteousH6662 man, that the righteousH6662 sinH2398 not, and he doth not sinH2398, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, because he is warnedH2094; also thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.

22And the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was there upon me; and he saidH559 to me, AriseH6965, go forthH3318 into the plainH1237, and I will there talkH1696 with thee. 23Then I aroseH6965, and went forthH3318 into the plainH1237: and, behold, the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 stoodH5975 there, as the gloryH3519 which I sawH7200 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529: and I fellH5307 on my faceH6440. 24Then the spiritH7307 enteredH935 into me, and setH5975 me upon my feetH7272, and spokeH1696 with me, and saidH559 to me, GoH935, shutH5462 thyself withinH8432 thy houseH1004. 25But thou, O sonH1121 of manH120, behold, they shall putH5414 cordsH5688 upon thee, and shall bindH631 thee with them, and thou shalt not go outH3318 amongH8432 them: 26And I will make thy tongueH3956 cleaveH1692 to the roof of thy mouthH2441, that thou shalt be dumbH481, and shalt not be to them a reproverH376H3198: for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.9 27But when I speakH1696 withH854 thee, I will openH6605 thy mouthH6310, and thou shalt sayH559 to them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; He that hearethH8085, let him hearH8085; and he that forbearethH2310, let him forbearH2308: for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.
