Ezekiel 2:6-8

New English Translation

⁶ But you, son of man, do not fear them, and do not fear their words. Even though briers^[a] and thorns^[b] surround you and you live among scorpions—do not fear their words and do not be terrified of the looks they give you,^[c] for they are a rebellious house! ⁷ You must speak my words to them whether they listen or not, for they are rebellious. ⁸ As for you, son of man, listen to what I am saying to you: Do not rebel like that rebellious house! Open your mouth and eat what I am giving you.”
