¹⁷ Now, ^(A)belt your garment around your waist and arise, and speak to them all that I command you. ^(B)Do not be dismayed before them, or I will make you dismayed before them.

⁶ And as for you, son of man, you are ^(A)not to fear them nor fear their words, though ^(B)thistles and thorns are with you and you sit on scorpions; you are not to fear their words nor be dismayed at their presence, since they are a rebellious house.
