Lexham English Bible
3 “Son of man,[a] speak with the elders of Israel, and you must say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Are you coming to consult me? As I live,[b] I will surely not allow myself[c] to be consulted by you!”’ declares[d] the Lord Yahweh. 4 Will you judge them? Will you judge them, son of man?[e] Make known to them the detestable things of their ancestors.[f] 5 And you must say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “On the day of my choosing Israel I swore[g] to the offspring of the house of Jacob, and I made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, and I swore[h] to them, saying,[i] ‘I am Yahweh your God.’
