25 “And you, son of man,[a] will it not be that on the day when I take from them[b] their stronghold, the joy of their glory, the delight of their eyes, and the longing of their inner self,[c] their sons and daughters— 26 on that day a survivor will come to you with the news.[d] 27 On that day your mouth shall be opened at the arrival of the fugitive,[e] and you shall speak, and you shall not be silent any longer, and you shall be to them as a sign, and they will know that I am Yahweh.”
