22. And the hand of the Lord was over me. And he said to me: "Rise up, and go out to the plain, and there I will speak with you."
23. And I rose up, and I went out to the plain. And behold, the glory of the Lord was standing there, like the glory that I saw beside the river Chebar. And I fell upon my face.
24. And the Spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet. And he spoke to me, and he said to me: "Enter and enclose yourself in the midst of your house.
25. And as for you, son of man, behold: they shall put chains upon you and bind you with them. And you shall not go out from their midst.
26. And I will cause your tongue to adhere to the roof of your mouth. And you will be mute, not like a man who reproaches. For they are a provoking house.
