Ezekiel 2

1 Αὕτη ἡ ὅρασις ὁμοιώματος δόξης Κυρίου· καὶ ἴδον, καὶ πίπτω ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου, καὶ ἤκουσα φωνὴν λαλοῦντος· καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, στῆθι ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας σου, καὶ λαλήσω πρὸς σέ·

2 Καὶ ἦλθεν ἐπʼ ἐμὲ πνεῦμα, καὶ ἀνέλαβέ με, καὶ ἐξῇρέ με, καὶ ἔστησέ με ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας μου, καὶ ἤκουον αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος πρὸς μέ.

3 Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἐξαποστέλλω ἐγώ σε πρὸς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, τοὺς παραπικραίνοντάς με, οἵτινες παρεπίκρανάν με, αὐτοὶ καὶ οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.

4 Καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτοὺς, τάδε λέγει Κύριος,

5 ἐὰν ἆρα ἀκούσωσιν ἢ πτοηθῶσι, διότι οἶκος παραπικραίνων ἐστὶ, καὶ γνώσονται ὅτι προφήτης εἶ σὺ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν.

6 Καὶ σὺ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, μὴ φοβηθῇς αὐτοὺς, μηδὲ ἐκστῇς ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν· διότι παροιστρήσουσι, καὶ ἐπισυστήσονται ἐπὶ σὲ κύκλῳ, καὶ ἐν μέσῳ σκορπίων σὺ κατοικεῖς· τοὺς λόγους αὐτῶν μὴ φοβηθῇς, καὶ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν μὴ ἐκστῇς, διότι οἶκος παραπικραίνων ἐστί.

7 Καὶ λαλήσεις τοὺς λόγους μου πρὸς αὐτοὺς, ἐὰν ἆρα ἀκούσωσιν ἢ πτοηθῶσιν, ὅτι οἶκος παραπικραίνων ἐστί.

8 Καὶ σὺ, υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου, ἄκουε τοῦ λαλοῦντος πρὸς σὲ, μὴ γίνου παραπικραίνων, καθὼς ὁ οἶκος ὁ παραπικραίνων· χάνε τὸ στόμα σου, καὶ φάγε ὃ ἐγὼ δίδωμί σοι.

9 Καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ χεὶρ ἐκτεταμένη πρὸς μὲ, καὶ ἐν αὐτῇ κεφαλὶς βιβλίου.

10 Καὶ ἀνείλησεν αὐτὴν ἐνώπιόν μου, καὶ ἦν ἐν αὐτῇ γεγραμμένα τὰ ἔμπροσθεν καὶ τὰ ὀπίσω· καὶ ἐγέγραπτο θρῆνος καὶ μέλος καὶ οὐαί.

1 This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw and fell upon my face, and heard the voice of one speaking: and he said to me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak to thee.

2 And the Spirit came upon me, and took me up, and raised me, and set me on my feet: and I heard him speaking to me.

3 And he said to me, Son of man, I send thee forth to the house of Israel, them that provoke me; who have provoked me, they and their fathers, to this day.

4 And thou shalt say to them, Thus saith the Lord.

5 Whether then indeed they shall hear or fear, (for it is a provoking house,) yet they shall know that thou art a prophet in the midst of them.

6 And thou, son of man, fear them not, nor be dismayed at their face; (for they will madden and will rise up against thee round about, and thou dwellest in the midst of scorpions): be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their countenance, for it is a provoking house.

7 And thou shalt speak my words to them, whether they will hear or fear: for it is a provoking house.

8 And thou, son of man, hear him that speaks to thee; be not thou provoking, as the provoking house: open thy mouth, and eat what I give thee.

9 And I looked, and behold, a hand stretched out to me, and in it a volume of a book.

10 And he unrolled it before me: and in it the front and the back were written upon : and there was written in it Lamentation, and mournful song, and woe.
