JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ And if they will hear, and if they will desist, (for they a house of contradiction,) and they shall know that a prophet was in the midst of them. ⁶ And thou son of man, thou shalt not be afraid of them, and thou shalt not be afraid of their words, if rebels and thorns with thee, and thou art dwelling with scorpions: thou shalt not be afraid of their words, and thou shalt not be terrified from their face, for they a house of contradiction. ⁷ And speak my word to them, if they will hear and if they will desist: for they are contradiction. ⁸ And thou son of man, hear what I speak to thee: Thou shalt not be contradiction as the house of contradiction: open thy mouth and eat what I give to thee.
