Ezekiel 3:24-27

English Standard Version

^24 (A)But the Spirit entered into me and set me on my feet, and he spoke with me and said to me, “Go, shut yourself within your house. ²⁵ And you, O son of man, behold, ^(B)cords will be placed upon you, and you shall be bound with them, so that you cannot go out among the people. ²⁶ And I will make your tongue cling to the roof of your mouth, so that ^(C)you shall be mute and unable to reprove them, ^(D)for they are a rebellious house. ^27 (E)But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, ^(F)‘Thus says the Lord God.’ ^(G)He who will hear, let him hear; and he who will refuse to hear, let him refuse, for they are a rebellious house.
