Contextual Overview
1 Then a spirit lifted me up and brought me to the east gate of Adonai 's house, the gate that faces eastward. At the entrance of the gate I saw twenty-five men; among them were Ya'azanyah the son of ‘Azur and P'latyahu the son of B'nayahu, leaders of the people. 2 He said to me, "Human being, these are the men who make evil plans and give wicked advice in this city. 3 They say, ‘The time hasn't come to build houses. This city is the cooking pot, and we're the meat!' 4 Therefore prophesy against them, human being, prophesy!" 5 The Spirit of Adonai fell on me, and he said to me, "Say, ‘Here is what Adonai says: "What you are saying is correct, house of Isra'el; because I know how your minds work. 6 You have killed many in this city, you have filled its streets with the dead." 7 Therefore Adonai Elohim says this: "Those you have killed and strewn all over it, they are the meat; and this city is indeed the cooking pot; but you will be removed from it. 8 You are afraid of the sword, but I will bring the sword upon you," says Adonai Elohim . 9 "I will bring you out of it, hand you over to foreigners and execute judgments among you. 10 You will die by the sword; I will judge you at the border of Isra'el; and you will know that I am Adonai .

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Therefore prophesy against them,.... Evil things against them, things that are disagreeable to them; since they flatter themselves with good things, and cry peace and safety, let them know that destruction is coming upon them: or, "concerning them" f; what will befall them, and that it will be otherwise with them than they imagine:
prophesy, O son of man; this is repeated, not only to stir up the prophet to the performance of his work and office, not fearing the faces, and revilings, and mockings of men; but to show the indignation of the Lord at their scoffs and jeers, and the certain accomplishment of what should be predicted.
