1. Then He said to me: Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak to you!
2. When He spoke to me, the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet. Then I heard Him speaking to me.
3. And He said to me: Son of man, I send you to the sons of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against Me. They and their fathers have transgressed against Me even to this very day.
4. And as for the impudent and obstinate children, I am sending you to them. And you shall say to them, “Thus says the Lord God.”
5. As for them, whether they listen or not (for they are a rebellious house), they shall know that there has been a prophet among them.
