Ezekiel 2:8 Context
6¶ And thou sonne of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their wordes, though bryars and thornes be with thee, and thou doest dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their lookes, though they be a rebellious house. 7And thou shalt speake my words vnto them, whether they will heare or whether they will forbeare, for they are most rebellious. 8But thou, sonne of man, heare what I say vnto thee; Be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth and eate that I giue thee. 9¶ And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent vnto mee, and loe, a roule of a booke was therein. 10And he spread it before me, and it was written within and without, and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
