Ezekiel 2
New American Standard Bible 1995
The Prophet’s Call
2 Then He said to me, “Son of man, (A)stand on your feet that I may speak with you!” 2 As He spoke to me the (B)Spirit entered me and set me on my feet; and I heard Him speaking to me. 3 Then He said to me, “Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to a rebellious people who have (C)rebelled against Me; (D)they and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this very day. 4 I am sending you to them who are [a](E)stubborn and obstinate children, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord [b]God.’ 5 As for them, (F)whether they listen or [c]not—for they are a rebellious house—they will (G)know that a prophet has been among them. 6 And you, son of man, (H)neither fear them nor fear their words, though (I)thistles and thorns are with you and you sit on scorpions; neither fear their words nor be dismayed at their presence, for they are a rebellious house. 7 But you shall (J)speak My words to them (K)whether they listen or [d]not, for they are rebellious.
8 “Now you, son of man, listen to what I am speaking to you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth and (L)eat what I am giving you.” 9 Then I looked, and behold, a (M)hand was extended to me; and lo, a [e](N)scroll was in it. 10 When He spread it out before me, it was written on the front and back, and written on it were lamentations, mourning and (O)woe.

New King James Version
Ezekiel Called to Be a Prophet
2 And He said to me, “Son of man, (A)stand on your feet, and I will speak to you.” 2 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. 3 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. 4 (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.’ 5 (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.
6 “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. 7 (M)You shall speak My words to them, whether they hear or whether they refuse, for they are rebellious. 8 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.”
9 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.

ଯିହିଜିକଲ ଭବିଷ୍ୟଦ୍ବକ୍ତାଙ୍କ ପୁସ୍ତକ 2
Odia Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଯିହିଜିକଲଙ୍କୁ କଥା କୁହନ୍ତି
2 ଅନନ୍ତର ସେ ମୋତେ କହିଲେ, “ହେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟ ପୁତ୍ର, ଉଠ, ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭ ସହିତ କଥା ହେବି।”
2 ତା'ପରେ ଏକ ଆତ୍ମା ମୋ’ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ପ୍ରବେଶ କରି ମୋତେ ଠିଆ କରାଇଲା। ତା'ପରେ ସେହି ସ୍ୱର ମୋ’ ସହିତ କଥାବାର୍ତ୍ତା କରିବାକୁ ଆରମ୍ଭ କଲା। 3 ତା'ପରେ ସେ ମୋତେ କହିଲା, “ହେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟ ପୁତ୍ର, ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଇସ୍ରାଏଲର ସନ୍ତାନଗଣଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ପ୍ରେରଣ କରୁଛି। ସେମାନେ ଏକ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ ଜାତି। ସେମାନେ ଓ ସେମାନଙ୍କର ପୂର୍ବପୁରୁଷଗଣ ମୋ’ ବିରୁଦ୍ଧରେ ବିଦ୍ରୋହ କଲେ ଓ ଆଜି ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ପାପ କରି ଗ୍ଭଲିଛନ୍ତି। 4 ସେହି ଲୋକମାନେ ସ୍ୱେଚ୍ଛାଗ୍ଭରୀ ଓ କଠିନ ଚିତ୍ତ। ତଥାପି ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ସେମାନଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ପଠାଉଛି। ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ କୁହ, ‘ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଆମ୍ଭର ପ୍ରଭୁ ଏହି କଥା କହିଛନ୍ତି।’ 5 ସେମାନେ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ ବଂଶ, ସେମାନେ ତୁମ୍ଭ କଥା ଶୁଣନ୍ତୁ ବା ନ ଶୁଣନ୍ତୁ, ତୁମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଏହିସବୁ କଥା ନିଶ୍ଚୟ କହିବ, ଯାହା ଫଳରେ ସେମାନେ ଜାଣିବେ ଯେ, ସେମାନଙ୍କ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ଜଣେ ଭବିଷ୍ୟଦ୍ବକ୍ତା ପହଞ୍ଚିଛନ୍ତି।
6 “ହେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟ ପୁତ୍ର, ଏହିସବୁ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ ଲୋକମାନେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଚତୁର୍ପାର୍ଶ୍ୱରେ କଣ୍ଟକ ତୁଲ୍ୟ ଅଟନ୍ତି ଓ ଏହା ସତେ ଯେପରି ତୁମ୍ଭେ କଙ୍କଡ଼ାବିଚ୍ଛାମାନଙ୍କ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ବାସ କରୁଅଛ। କିନ୍ତୁ ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ଭୟ କର ନାହିଁ। ସେମାନେ ଯାହା କୁହନ୍ତି, ସେଥିରେ ଭୟଭୀତ ହୁଅ ନାହିଁ, ସେମାନଙ୍କ ଗ୍ଭହାଣି ଦ୍ୱାରା ଆତଙ୍କିତ ହୁଅ ନାହିଁ। 7 ସେମାନେ ଶୁଣନ୍ତୁ ବା ନ ଶୁଣନ୍ତୁ ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭଙ୍କୁ ଯାହା କହୁଛି, ସେସବୁକୁ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ କୁହ କାରଣ ସେମାନେ ଅତ୍ୟନ୍ତ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ।
8 “ହେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟ ପୁତ୍ର, ଆମ୍ଭେ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଯାହା କହୁଅଛୁ ତାହା ଶୁଣ; ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଏହିସବୁ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀମାନଙ୍କ ତୁଲ୍ୟ ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ ହୁଅ ନାହିଁ; ନିଜର ମୁଖ ଖୋଲ, ଆମ୍ଭେ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଯାହା ଦେଉଅଛୁ ତାହା ଭୋଜନ କର।”
9 ତା'ପରେ ମୁଁ ଦେଖିଲି ଏକ ହସ୍ତ ମୋ’ ଆଡ଼େ ପ୍ରସାରିତ ହେଲା। ସେ ହାତରେ ଲେଖାଥିବା ଏକ ନଳାକାର ପୁସ୍ତକ ଥିଲା। 10 ଆଉ ମୁଁ ସେହି ଗୁଡ଼ା ହୋଇଥିବା ପୁସ୍ତକକୁ ପ୍ରସାରିତ କଲି ଓ ତାହାର ଉପର ଓ ତଳ ଲେଖା ହୋଇଥିବାର ଦେଖିଲି। ଆଉ ସେଥିରେ ବିଳାପ, ଶୋକ ଓ ସନ୍ତାପର କଥା ଲିଖିତ ଥିଲା।
