22 Yahweh’s hand was there on me; and he said to me, “Arise, go out into the plain, and I will talk with you there.”

23 Then I arose, and went out into the plain, and behold, Yahweh’s glory stood there, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar. Then I fell on my face.

24 Then the Spirit entered into me, and set me on my feet. He spoke with me, and said to me, “Go, shut yourself inside your house. 25 But you, son of man, behold, they will put ropes on you, and will bind you with them, and you will not go out among them. 26 I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth, that you will be mute, and will not be able to correct them; for they are a rebellious house. 27 But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Yahweh says.’ He who hears, let him hear; and he who refuses, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.”

And he said to me, “Arise, go out into (B)the valley,[a] and (C)there I will speak with you.” 23 So I arose and went out into the valley, and behold, (D)the glory of the Lord stood there, like the glory that I had seen (E)by the Chebar canal, (F)and I fell on my face. 24 (G)But the Spirit entered into me and set me on my feet, and he spoke with me and said to me, “Go, shut yourself within your house. 25 And you, O son of man, behold, (H)cords will be placed upon you, and you shall be bound with them, so that you cannot go out among the people. 26 And I will make your tongue cling to the roof of your mouth, so that (I)you shall be mute and unable to reprove them, (J)for they are a rebellious house. 27 (K)But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, (L)‘Thus says the Lord God.’ (M)He who will hear, let him hear; and he who will refuse to hear, let him refuse, for they are a rebellious house.
