Ezekiel 2

1 And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon your feet, and I will speak unto you.

He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you."

2 And the spirit entered into me when he spoke unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spoke unto me.

The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.

3 And he said unto me, Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even unto this very day.

He said to me, "Son of man, I send you to the house of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.

4 For they are shameless children and stiff hearted. I do send you unto them; and you shall say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD.

The children are obstinate and hardhearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, 'Thus says the LORD.'

5 And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house, ) yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.

They, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house), yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.

6 And you, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.

You, son of man, do not be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: do not be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.

7 And you shall speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they are most rebellious.

You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.

8 But you, son of man, hear what I say unto you; Be not you rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that I give you.

But you, son of man, hear what I tell you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that which I give you."

9 And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;

When I looked, look, a hand was put forth to me; and, look, a written scroll was in it.

10 And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.

He spread it before me: and it was written within and without; and there were written in it lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
