Ezekiel 2:2-4

New Catholic Bible

² As he spoke to me, a Spirit entered into me and stood me on my feet, and I listened to him speaking.

³ He said to me: Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me. They and their ancestors have been in revolt against me to this very day. ⁴ Because they are obstinate and stubborn, I am sending you to them. You shall say to them, “Thus says the Lord God.”
