Ezekiel's Call
1 THIS was the vision of the similitude of the glory of our Lord. And I saw, and I fell on my face, and I heard the voice of one speaking. And he said to me: Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.📜💬📚
2 And the spirit entered into me after that he spake to me, and he set me upon my feet: and I heard him speaking to me,📜💬📚
3 and saying: Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to nations apostates which have revolted from me: they, and their fathers, have transgressed my covenant even unto this day.📜💬📚
4 And they are children of an hard face, and of an heart that can not be tamed, to whom I send thee: and this thou shalt say to them: Thus saith our Lord God:📜💬📚
5 If perhaps they at the least will hear, & if perhaps they will cease, because it is an exasperating house: and they shall know that there was a Prophet in the midst of them.📜💬📚
6 Thou therefore o son of man fear them not, neither be afraid of their words: because the incredulous and subverters are with thee, & thou dwellest with scorpions. Fear not their words, and of their looks be not afraid: because it is an exasperating house.📜💬📚
7 Thou therefore shalt speak my words to them, if perhaps they will hear, and be quiet, because they are provokers to anger.📜💬📚
8 But thou son of man hear whatsoever I speak to thee: and be not exasperating, as it is an exasperating house: open thy mouth, and eat whatsoever I give thee.📜💬📚
9 And I looked, and behold, an hand sent to me, wherein was a rolled book: and he spread it before me, which was written within and without: and there were written in it lamentations, and a song, and woe.📜💬📚
