2:1 Then He said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet and I will speak to you.”
2:2 Then as He spoke to me the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet; and I heard Him speaking to me.
2:3 And He said to me, “I am sending you, son of man, to the children of Israel, to a rebellious people [in both the north and the south] that have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have sinned and revolted against Me to this very day.
2:4 I am sending you to them who are stubborn and obstinate children, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God.’
2:5 As for them, whether they listen or refuse [to listen]—for they are a rebellious house—yet they will know and be fully aware of the fact that there has been a prophet among them.
2:6 And you, son of man, neither fear them nor fear their words; though briars and thorns are all around you and you sit among scorpions, neither fear their words nor be dismayed at their presence, for they are a rebellious house.
2:7 But you shall speak My words to them whether they will listen or refuse [to listen], for they are [most] rebellious.
2:8 “As for you, son of man, listen to what I say to you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I am giving you.”
2:9 Then I looked, and I saw a hand stretched out toward me; and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.
