Ezekiel 3

1 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:1

2 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:2

3 And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat [it]; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:3

4 And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:4

5 For thou [art] not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, [but] to the house of Israel; KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:5

6 Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have hearkened unto thee.KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:6

7 But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel [are] impudent and hardhearted. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:7

8 Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:8

9 As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they [be] a rebellious house. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:9

10 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:10

11 And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:11

12 Then the spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, [saying], Blessed [be] the glory of the LORD from his place. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:12

13 [I heard] also the noise of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels over against them, and a noise of a great rushing. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:13

14 So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the LORD was strong upon me.KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:14

15 Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib, that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:15

16 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:16

17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:17

18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked [man] shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:18

19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:19

20 Again, When a righteous [man] doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:20

21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous [man], that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:21

22 And the hand of the LORD was there upon me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with thee.KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:22

23 Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Chebar: and I fell on my face. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:23

24 Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spake with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine house. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:24

25 But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them:KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:25

26 And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: for they [are] a rebellious house. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:26

27 But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they [are] a rebellious house. KJVSD — Ezekiel 3:27
