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: for they and their fathers have rebelled against me, even unto this very day.

For they are [a]impudent children, and stiff-hearted: I do send thee unto them, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God.

But surely they will not hear, neither indeed will they cease: for they are a rebellious house: yet shall they know that [b]there hath been a Prophet among them.

And thou son of man, [c]fear them not, neither be afraid of their words, although rebels and thorns be with thee, and thou remainest with scorpions: fear not their words, nor be afraid at their looks, for they are a rebellious house.

Therefore thou shalt speak my words unto them: but surely they will not hear, neither will they indeed cease: for they are rebellious.

But thou son of man, hear what I say unto thee: be not thou rebellious, like this rebellious house: open thy mouth, and [d]eat that I give thee.
