Now the hand of the LORD was on me there, and He said to me, "Get up, go out to the plain, and there I will ^(C1)speak to you."

So I got up and went out to the plain; and behold, the ^(C1)glory of the LORD was standing there, like the glory that ^(C2)I saw by the river Chebar, and I fell on my face.

But the ^(C1)Spirit entered me and set me up on my feet; and He spoke with me and said to me, "Go, shut yourself inside your house.

"And as for you, son of man, they will ^(C1)put ropes ^(F1)around you and bind you with them so that you do not go out among them.

"Moreover, ^(C1)I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth so that you will be unable to speak and will not be a man who reprimands them, since they are a rebellious house.

"But ^(C1)when I speak to you, I will open your mouth and you will say to them, 'This is what the Lord ^(F1)GOD says:' The one who hears, let him hear; and the one who refuses, let him refuse; ^(C2)for they are a rebellious house.
