Chap. III.
Against a stubborne people, to whom he must preach, 8. the prophet is
streingthened, 12. by increase of spirite: 17. charged to execute his office.
22. But first to be silent for a time,
-- --
1 And he said to me: Sonne of man whatsoeuer thou shalt
finde eate: note eate this volume, and going speake to the
children of Israel.
2 And I opened my mouth, and he fed me
with that volume:
3 and he said to me: Sonne of man thy
bellie shal eate, and thy bowels shal be filled with this volume,
which I geue thee. And I did eate it: and it was made in my
mouth sweete as honie.
4 And he said to me: Sonne of man
goe to the house of Israel, and thou shalt speake my wordes
to them.
5 For not to a people of profound speach, and of an
vnknowne tongue art thou sent, to the house of Israel.
6 Neither
to manie peoples of profonnd speach, & of an vnknowne
tongue, whose wordes thou canst not heare: and if thou were
sent to them, note they would heare thee.
7 But the house of Israel
wil not heare thee: because they wil not heare me. for al the
house of Israel is of a shameles forehead, and hard harted.
8 Behold I haue made thy face stronger then their faces, and
thy forehead harder then their foreheads.
9 As the adamant,
and as the flint stone haue I made thy face: feare them not, neither
be afrayd of their face: because it is an exasperating house.
10 And he said to me: Sonne of man, al my wordes which I
speake to thee, take in thy hart, and heare with thine eares:
11 And goe, enter into the transmigration, to the children of
of thy people, and thou shalt speake to them, and shalt say to
them: Thus saith our Lord God: if perhaps they wil heare, and
be quiet.
12 And the spirit tooke me vp, and I heard behinde
me the voice of a great commotion: Blessed be the glorie of
our Lord from his place,
13 and the voice of the winges of liuing
creatures striking one against an other, & the voice of wheeles
folowing the liuing creatures, and the voice of a great commotion.
14 The spirit also lifted me, & tooke me vp: & I went away
bitter in the indignation of my spirit: for the hand of our Lord
was with me, strengthening me.
15 And I came to the transmigration,
to the heape of new corne, to them, that dwelt by the
riuer Chobar, and I sate where they sate: and I taried there
seuen dayes mourning in the middes of them.
16 And when
seuen dayes, were passed, the word of our Lord was made to
me, saying:
17 Sonne of man, a watchman to the house of Israel
haue I geuen thee: and thou shalt heare the word out of
my mouth, and shalt tel it them from me.
18 If when I say to
the impious: Dying thou shalt dye: thou tel him not, nor
speake that he may be turned away from his impious way,
-- --
and liue: the same impious man shal dye in his iniquitie, but
his bloud I wil requyre at thy hand.
19 But if thou denounce
to the impious, and he be not conuerted from his impietie,
and from his impious way: he verely shal dye in his iniquitie,
but thou hast deliuered thy soule.
20 Yea and if the iust shal be
turned from his iustice, & shal doe iniquitie: I note wil lay a stumbling
blocke before him, he shal dye: because thou hast not
told him, he shal dye in his sinne, and his iustices which he
hath done shal not be in memorie: but his bloud I wil require
at thy hand.
21 But if note thou warne the iust that the iust sinne
not, and he doe not sinne: liuing he shal liue, because thou
hast warned him, and thou hast deliuered thy soule.
22 And the
hand of our Lord was made vpon me, and he said to me: Rising
goe out into the fielde, and there I wil speake with thee.
23 And rising I went out into the filde: and behold the glorie
of our Lord stood there as it were the glorie, which I saw by
the riuer Chobar: and I fel on my face:
24 And the spirit entered
into me, and set me vpon my feete: and he spake to me,
and sayd to me: Goe in, and be shut vp in the middes of thy
house.
25 And thou sonne of man, behold bandes are geuen
vpon thee, and they shal binde thee in them: and thou shalt
not goe forth from the middes of them.
26 And I wil make thy
tongue cleaue to the roofe of thy mouth, and thou shalt be
dumme, not as a man controwling: because it is an exasperating
house.
27 But when I shal speake to thee, I wil open thy
mouth, and thou shalt say to them: Thus saith our Lord God:
He that heareth, let him heare: and he that is quiet, let him be
quiet: because it is an exasperating house.
