Ezekiel 2
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.

Ezekiel 2
Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
2 At sinabi niya sa akin, Anak ng tao, tumayo ka ng iyong mga paa, at ako'y makikipagsalitaan sa iyo.
2 At ang Espiritu ay sumaakin nang siya'y magsalita sa akin, at itinayo ako sa aking mga paa; at aking narinig siya na nagsasalita sa akin.
3 At kaniyang sinabi sa akin, Anak ng tao, sinusugo kita sa mga anak ni Israel, sa mga bansa na mapanghimagsik, na nanganghimagsik laban sa akin: sila at ang kanilang mga magulang ay nagsisalangsang laban sa akin, hanggang sa kaarawan ngang ito.
4 At ang mga anak ay walang galang at mapagmatigas na loob; sinusugo kita sa kanila: at iyong sasabihin sa kanila, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios.
5 At sila sa didinggin man nila, o sa itatakuwil man nila (sapagka't sila'y mapanghimagsik na sangbahayan), gayon man ay matatalastas nila na nagkaroon ng propeta sa gitna nila.
6 At ikaw, anak ng tao, huwag matakot sa kanila, o matakot man sa kanilang mga salita, bagaman maging mga dawag at mga tinik ang kasama mo, at bagaman ikaw ay tumatahan sa gitna ng mga alakdan: huwag kang matakot sa kanilang mga salita, o manglupaypay man sa kanilang mga tingin, bagaman sila'y mapanghimagsik na sangbahayan.
7 At iyong sasalitain ang aking mga salita sa kanila, sa didinggin, o sa itatakuwil man; sapagka't sila'y totoong mapanghimagsik.
8 Nguni't ikaw, anak ng tao, dinggin mo kung ano ang sinasabi ko sa iyo; huwag kang mapanghimagsik na gaya niyaong mapanghimagsik na sangbahayan; ibuka mo ang iyong bibig, at iyong kanin ang ibinibigay ko sa iyo.
9 At nang ako'y tumingin, narito, isang kamay ay nakaunat sa akin; at narito, isang balumbon ay nandoon;
10 At ikinadkad niya sa harap ko: at nasusulatan sa loob at sa labas; at may nakasulat doon na mga taghoy, at panangis, at mga daing.

New International Version
Ezekiel’s Call to Be a Prophet
2 He said to me, “Son of man,[a](A) stand(B) up on your feet and I will speak to you.(C)” 2 As he spoke, the Spirit came into me and raised me(D) to my feet, and I heard him speaking to me.
3 He said: “Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me; they and their ancestors have been in revolt against me to this very day.(E) 4 The people to whom I am sending you are obstinate and stubborn.(F) Say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says.’(G) 5 And whether they listen or fail to listen(H)—for they are a rebellious people(I)—they will know that a prophet has been among them.(J) 6 And you, son of man, do not be afraid(K) of them or their words. Do not be afraid, though briers and thorns(L) are all around you and you live among scorpions. Do not be afraid of what they say or be terrified by them, though they are a rebellious people.(M) 7 You must speak(N) my words to them, whether they listen or fail to listen, for they are rebellious.(O) 8 But you, son of man, listen to what I say to you. Do not rebel(P) like that rebellious people;(Q) open your mouth and eat(R) what I give you.”
9 Then I looked, and I saw a hand(S) stretched out to me. In it was a scroll,(T) 10 which he unrolled before me. On both sides of it were written words of lament and mourning and woe.(U)

- Ezekiel 2:1 The Hebrew phrase ben adam means human being. The phrase son of man is retained as a form of address here and throughout Ezekiel because of its possible association with “Son of Man” in the New Testament.
