Then came upon me there the hand of Yahweh, - and he said unto me, Arise go forth into the valley, and there, will I speak with thee.

So I arose and went forth into the valley, and lo! there the glory of Yahweh, standing, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar,-and I fell upon my face.

Then the Spirit entered into me, and caused me to stand upon my feet, - and he spake with me and said unto me, Go in shut thyself up, in the midst of thine own house,

And thou - O son of man, lo! they have put upon thee bands, and they will bind thee therewith,-.so that thou go not forth in their midst;

thy tongue also, will I cause to cleave unto the roof of thy mouth, so shalt thou be dumb and not be to them a reprover, - For a perverse house, they are!

But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them. Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, - He that is minded to hear, let him hear, And he that is minded to forbear, let him forbear! For a perverse house, they are!
