Ezekiel 3 — Context

22

And the hand of the LORD was there on me; and he said to me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with you.

23

Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Chebar: and I fell on my face.

24

Then the spirit entered into me, and set me on my feet, and spoke with me, and said to me, Go, shut yourself within your house.

25

But you, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands on you, and shall bind you with them, and you shall not go out among them:

26

And I will make your tongue sticks to the roof of your mouth, that you shall be dumb, and shall not be to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house.

27

But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD; He that hears, let him hear; and he that declines, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
