1. God said, “Mortal man, eat this scroll; then go and speak to the people of Israel.”
2. So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat.
3. He said, “Mortal man, eat this scroll that I give you; fill your stomach with it.” I ate it, and it tasted as sweet as honey.
4. Then God said, “Mortal man, go to the people of Israel and say to them whatever I tell you to say.
5. I am not sending you to a nation that speaks a difficult foreign language, but to the Israelites.
