Ezekiel 2:3-5

New International Version - UK

³ He said: ‘Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me; they and their ancestors have been in revolt against me to this very day. ⁴ The people to whom I am sending you are obstinate and stubborn. Say to them, “This is what the Sovereign Lord says.” ⁵ And whether they listen or fail to listen – for they are a rebellious people – they will know that a prophet has been among them.
