²⁵ And thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them;

²⁶ and I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth that thou shalt be dumb and shalt not be to them a reprover; for they are a rebellious house.

²⁷ But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath the Lord GOD said: He that hears, let him hear, and he that forbears; let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
