1. And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.
2. And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet; and I heard him that spake unto me.
3. And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to nations that are rebellious, which have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even unto this very day.
4. And the children are impudent and stiffhearted; I do send thee unto them: and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD.
