CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ 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." ⁶ `And you, son of man, you are not afraid of them, yea, of their words you are not afraid, for briers and thorns are with you, and near scorpions you are dwelling, of their words you are not afraid, and of their faces you are not affrighted, for they [are] a rebellious house, ⁷ And you have spoken My words unto them, whether they hear or whether they forbear, for they [are] rebellious." ⁸ `And you, son of man, hear that which I am speaking unto you:You are not rebellious like the rebellious house, open your mouth, and eat that which I am giving unto you.'"
