以西结受差派作先知

他对我说:“人子啊!站起来,我要跟你说话。” 他对我说话的时候,灵就进到我里面,使我站立起来;我又听见对我说话的声音。 他对我说:“人子啊!我差派你到以色列人那里去,就是到那背叛我的叛逆国民那里去!他们和他们的列祖都得罪了我,直到今日。 这人民十分顽固,心里刚硬,我差派你到他们那里去。你要对他们说:‘主耶和华这样说。’ 他们或听或不听(他们原是叛逆的民族),也必知道在他们中间有一位先知。

以西结受 神训勉

“人子啊!至于你,虽然荆棘和蒺藜在你周围,你又住在蝎子群中,你不要怕他们,也不要怕他们讲的话。他们原是叛逆的民族,你总不要怕他们讲的话,在他们面前,也不要惊惶。 他们或听或不听,你只要把我的话告诉他们,他们原是叛逆的。

看见书卷

“人子啊!至于你,你要听我对你讲的话。不要叛逆我,像那叛逆的民族一样。张开你的口,把我赐给你的吃下去!” 我观看,看见一只手向我伸过来,手中有一卷书卷。 10 他把书卷在我面前展开,书卷内外都写上字,写的是哀歌、悲叹和灾祸。

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

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

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

For they are impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God.

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

And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they are most rebellious.

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

And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;

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

Ezekiel Called to Be a Prophet

And He said to me, “Son of man, (A)stand on your feet, and I will speak to you.” Then (B)the Spirit entered me when He spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard Him who spoke to me. And He said to me: “Son of man, I am sending you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has (C)rebelled against Me; (D)they and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this very day. (E)For they are [a]impudent and stubborn children. I am sending you to them, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God.’ (F)As for them, whether they hear or whether they refuse—for they are a (G)rebellious house—yet they (H)will know that a prophet has been among them.

“And you, son of man, (I)do not be afraid of them nor be afraid of their words, though (J)briers and thorns are with you and you dwell among scorpions; (K)do not be afraid of their words or dismayed by their looks, (L)though they are a rebellious house. (M)You shall speak My words to them, whether they hear or whether they refuse, for they are rebellious. But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Do not be rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and (N)eat what I give you.”

Now when I looked, there was (O)a hand stretched out to me; and behold, (P)a scroll of a book was in it. 10 Then He spread it before me; and there was writing on the inside and on the outside, and written on it were lamentations and mourning and woe.
