2:1  The Prophet is sent to call the people from their error. And he said unto me, Son of man, stand up upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee.
2:2  And the Spirit entered into me, when he had spoken unto me, and set me upon my feet, so that I heard him that spake unto me.
2:3  And he said unto me, Son of Man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: for they and their fathers have rebelled against me, even unto this very day.
2:4  For they are impudent children, and stiff-hearted: I do send thee unto them, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God.
2:5  But surely they will not hear, neither indeed will they cease: for they are a rebellious house: yet shall they know that there hath been a Prophet among them.
2:6  And thou son of man, fear them not, neither be afraid of their words, although rebels and thorns be with thee, and thou remainest with scorpions: fear not their words, nor be afraid at their looks, for they are a rebellious house.
2:7  Therefore thou shalt speak my words unto them: but surely they will not hear, neither will they indeed cease: for they are rebellious.
2:8  But thou son of man, hear what I say unto thee: be not thou rebellious, like this rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that I give thee.
2:9  And when I looked up, behold, an hand was sent unto me, and lo, a roll of a book was therein.
