1 And He said to me: “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak to you.” 2 And the Spirit came into me as He spoke to me and set me on my feet, and I heard the One speaking to me. 3 And He said to me, “Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me until this very day. 4 And the sons are hard of face and strong of heart; to them I am sending you, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord YHWH.’ 5 And they, whether they hear, or whether they refuse—for they are a rebellious house—they will know that a prophet has been in their midst. 6 And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them or of their words; do not be afraid—if briers and thorns are with you and among you scorpions are sitting!—Of their words, and do not be afraid of their faces, and do not be dismayed, for they are a rebellious house. 7 And you shall speak My words to them, whether they hear or whether they refuse—for they are rebellious.
