Ezekiel 3:1-11

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.
