< Ezekiel 2 >

1 He said to me, “You human, stand up while I speak to you.”
“Levántate, hijo del hombre, porque quiero hablar contigo”, me dijo.
2 While he spoke to me, [God’s] Spirit entered me and enabled me to stand up. Then I heard him speak to me.
Mientras me hablaba, el Espíritu entró en mí y me hizo levantarme. Le escuché mientras me hablaba.
3 He said, “You human, I will send you to the Israeli people. They are people who have turned away from me and rebelled against me. Their ancestors rebelled against me, and they themselves are still rebelling against me.
“Hijo de hombre”, me dijo, “te envío al pueblo de Israel, una nación desobediente que se ha rebelado contra mí. Ellos y sus antepasados han seguido rebelándose contra mí, hasta hoy.
4 The people to whom I will send you are very stubborn [DOU]. But say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says to you.’
Son cabezas de cerdo; son niños de corazón duro. Te envío a decirles que esto es lo que dice el Señor Dios.
5 [when you tell them my messages], perhaps those rebellious people will heed those messages and perhaps they will not heed them, but they will know [you are] a prophet who has been among them.
“Tanto si escuchan como si no, pues son un pueblo rebelde, se darán cuenta de que ha llegado a ellos un profeta.
6 And you human, you must not be afraid of them or afraid of what they say. [Living among them will be like] living in the midst of briers or scorpions, but do not be afraid of them. They are rebellious people [MTY], but do not allow them to cause you to become afraid.
“Hijo de hombre, no tengas miedo de ellos ni de lo que digan. No tengas miedo aunque estés rodeado de zarzas y espinas, aunque vivas entre escorpiones. No tengas miedo de lo que digan ni te desanimes por la forma en que te miran, aunque sean una familia rebelde.
7 Tell them my message, but do not expect them to pay attention to it, because they [very] rebellious.
Sólo diles lo que yo digo, te escuchen o no, porque son rebeldes.
8 But human, you must pay attention to what I say. Do not be rebellious like they are. [Now] open your mouth and eat what I give to you.”
“En cuanto a ti, hijo de hombre, presta atención a lo que te digo. No seas rebelde como esos rebeldes. Abre la boca y come lo que te voy a dar”.
9 Then, as I watched, I saw his hand that was stretched toward me. In his hand was a scroll.
Levanté la vista y vi una mano extendida hacia mí que sostenía un pergamino.
10 He unrolled the scroll. On both sides of it were written words that expressed sorrow and mourning and words about trouble/disaster.
Lo extendió frente a mí, y allí, escritas tanto en el anverso como en el reverso, había palabras de dolor, luto y tragedia.
