Ezekiel 2:3-5

CLV(i) 3 And He said unto Me, `Son of man, I am sending you unto the sons of Israel, unto nations who are rebels, who have rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me, unto this self-same day." 4 And the sons [are] brazen-faced and hard-hearted to whom I am sending you, and you have said unto them:Thus said the Lord Yahweh:" 5 and they--whether they hear, or whether they forbear, for a rebellious house they [are] --have known that a prophet has been in their midst."
