English Standard Version

⁵ And ^(A)whether they hear or refuse to hear (for they are ^(B)a rebellious house) ^(C)they will know that a prophet has been among them. ⁶ And you, son of man, ^(D)be not afraid of them, nor be afraid of their words, ^(E)though briers and thorns are with you and you sit on ^(F)scorpions.^[a] Be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house. ⁷ And you shall speak my words to them, ^(G)whether they hear or refuse to hear, for they are a rebellious house.

⁸ “But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. ^(H)Be not rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and ^(I)eat what I give you.”
