ABP - Ezekiel - 2

2:1  And he said to me, O son of man, stand upon your feet, and I shall speak to you!

2:2  And came upon me a spirit. And it took me up, and lifted me away, and stood me upon my feet. And I heard him speaking to me.

2:3  And he said to me, O son of man, I shall send you to the sons of Israel, of the ones rebelling against me; the ones who rebelled against me. They and their fathers disregarded me, until today's day.

2:4  And [4sons 1harsh 2and 3hard-hearted] -- I shall send you to them. And you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord the lord.

2:5  If it is so that they should hearken or be terrified, for [2house 1it is a rebellious], yet shall they know that [2a prophet 1you are] in the midst of them.

2:6  And you, O son of man, should not be afraid of them, nor be startled by their face, for they shall be heated, and shall rise up together against you round about. And [3in 4the midst 5of scorpions 1you 2dwell]. [3their words 1You should not 2fear], and before their face you should not be startled, for [2house 1it is a rebellious].

2:7  And you shall speak my words to them, for surely they shall hear or be terrified; for [3house 2a rebellious 1it is].

2:8  And you, O son of man, hearken to the one speaking to you! Be not rebellious as the [2house 1rebellious]! Gape wide your mouth, and eat what I give to you!

2:9  And I beheld, and behold, a hand stretched out to me, and in it a roll of a scroll.

2:10  And he unrolled it in my presence, and was in it things being written on the front and the rear; and it had written on it a lamentation, and a strain, and a woe.
