Your wickedness concerns a man like yourself, and your righteousness a son of man.

what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?

But let your hand be on the man of your right hand, the son of man whom you have made strong for yourself!

O Lord, what is man that you regard him, or the son of man that you think of him?

Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

“I, I am he who comforts you; who are you that you are afraid of man who dies, of the son of man who is made like grass,

Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast, who keeps the Sabbath, not profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”

As when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring cities, declares the Lord, so no man shall dwell there, and no son of man shall sojourn in her.

Her cities have become a horror, a land of drought and a desert, a land in which no one dwells, and through which no son of man passes.

And he said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”

And he said to me, “Son of man, I send you to the people of Israel, to nations of rebels, who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me to this very day.

“But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Be not rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I give you.”

And he said to me, “Son of man, eat whatever you find here. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

And he said to me, “Son of man, feed your belly with this scroll that I give you and fill your stomach with it.” Then I ate it, and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey.

And he said to me, “Son of man, go to the house of Israel and speak with my words to them.

Moreover, he said to me, “Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.

“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me.

And you, O son of man, behold, cords will be placed upon you, and you shall be bound with them, so that you cannot go out among the people.
