24. Then the Spirit entered into me, and set me on my feet. He spoke with me, and said to me, “Go, shut yourself inside your house.
25. But you, son of man, behold, they will put ropes on you, and will bind you with them, and you will not go out amongst them.
26. I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth, that you will be mute, and will not be able to correct them; for they are a rebellious house.
27. But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall tell them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD.’ He who hears, let him hear; and he who refuses, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.”
