But you, son of man, hear what I tell you. Don’t be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth, and eat that which I give you.”

When I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me; and, behold, a scroll of a book was in it. 10 He spread it before me. It was written within and without; and lamentations, mourning, and woe were written in it.

He said to me, “Son of man, eat what you find. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

Then I ate it; and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
