1 A nd he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

¶ And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

2 A nd the Spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet; and I heard him that spake unto me.

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

3 A nd he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to nations that are rebellious, which have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me even unto this very day.

And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the sons of Israel, to rebellious Gentiles that have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have rebelled against me, even unto this very day.

4 A nd the children are impudent and stiffhearted: I do sent thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah.

And to sons that have hard faces and strong hearts do I send thee; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath the Lord GOD said.

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

And they will not hear nor forbear (for they are a rebellious house), but they shall know that there has been a prophet among them.

6 A nd thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.

¶ And thou, son of man, do not be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, for they are rebels; though thou find thyself among thorns and thy dwelling be with briers, do not be afraid of their words, nor fear before them, for they are a rebellious house.

7 A nd thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.

And thou shalt speak my words unto them, but they will not hear nor forbear, for they are rebels.

8 B ut thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that which I give thee.

But thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; Do not be rebellious like the rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat what I give thee.

9 A nd when I looked, behold, a hand was put forth unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;

And I looked, and behold, a hand was sent unto me; and in it was the roll of a book,

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

and he spread it before me; and it was written within and without; and there was written therein lamentations and mourning and woes.
