2:1 He said to me, “Son of man, 1 stand on your feet and I will speak with you.” 2:2 As he spoke to me, 2 a wind 3 came into me and stood me on my feet, and I heard the one speaking to me.
2:3 He said to me, “Son of man, I am sending you to the house 4 of Israel, to rebellious nations 5 who have rebelled against me; both they and their fathers have revolted 6 against me to this very day. 2:4 The people 7 to whom I am sending you are obstinate and hard-hearted, 8 and you must say to them, ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says.’ 9
