²¹ ‘In that day ^(A)I will cause the ^[a]horn of the house of Israel to spring forth, and I will ^(B)open your mouth to speak in their midst. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.’ ”

¹⁵ for I will give you a mouth and wisdom ^(A)which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or ^[a]resist.

²² Now ^(A)the hand of the Lord had been upon me the evening before the man came who had escaped. And He had ^(B)opened my mouth; so when he came to me in the morning, my mouth was opened, and I was no longer mute.

^27 (A)On that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped; you shall speak and no longer be mute. Thus you will be a sign to them, and they shall know that I am the Lord.’ ”
