WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:06.660 Chapter 3 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest. 00:07.140 --> 00:10.060 Eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel. 00:10.940 --> 00:14.200 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll. 00:14.860 --> 00:19.840 And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy 00:19.840 --> 00:21.660 bowels with this roll that I give thee. 00:22.220 --> 00:26.240 Then did I eat it, and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness. 00:27.240 --> 00:32.460 And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, 00:32.780 --> 00:34.720 and speak with my words unto them. 00:35.360 --> 00:39.580 For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech, and of an hard language, 00:39.660 --> 00:41.480 but to the house of Israel. 00:42.160 --> 00:47.380 Not to many people of a strange speech, and of an hard language, whose words thou 00:47.380 --> 00:48.500 canst not understand. 00:49.440 --> 00:53.580 Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have hearkened unto thee. 00:54.100 --> 00:58.560 But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee, for they will not hearken unto 00:58.560 --> 00:58.940 me. 00:59.780 --> 01:03.200 For all the house of Israel are impudent and hard-hearted. 01:04.080 --> 01:08.580 Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead 01:08.580 --> 01:10.180 strong against their foreheads. 01:10.640 --> 01:14.160 As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead. 01:15.120 --> 01:19.600 Fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious 01:19.600 --> 01:19.980 house. 01:20.540 --> 01:25.720 Moreover, he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto thee 01:25.720 --> 01:28.800 receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears. 01:29.440 --> 01:34.340 And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, 01:34.480 --> 01:38.900 and speak unto them, and tell them, thus saith the Lord God, whether they will 01:38.900 --> 01:40.940 hear, or whether they will forbear. 01:41.820 --> 01:46.200 Then the Spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, 01:46.440 --> 01:50.060 saying, Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place. 01:50.740 --> 01:55.140 I heard also the noise of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, 01:55.760 --> 02:00.100 and the noise of the wheels over against them, and the noise of a great rushing. 02:00.820 --> 02:05.360 So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I went in bitterness, 02:06.040 --> 02:07.380 in the heat of my spirit. 02:08.060 --> 02:10.320 But the hand of the Lord was strong upon me. 02:11.060 --> 02:15.580 Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel Aviv, that dwelt by the river Kibar, 02:15.940 --> 02:20.540 and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days. 02:21.320 --> 02:25.440 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the Lord came unto 02:25.440 --> 02:30.160 me, saying, Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel. 02:30.940 --> 02:34.880 Therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. 02:35.600 --> 02:40.480 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die, and thou givest him not 02:40.480 --> 02:45.080 warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life. 02:45.080 --> 02:50.700 The same wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at 02:50.700 --> 02:51.360 thine hand. 02:52.260 --> 02:56.920 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his 02:56.920 --> 03:02.100 wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity, but thou hast delivered thy soul. 03:03.020 --> 03:07.620 Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, 03:08.000 --> 03:11.520 and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die. 03:12.100 --> 03:17.020 Because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his 03:17.020 --> 03:21.380 righteousness, which he hath done, shall not be remembered, but his blood 03:21.380 --> 03:23.140 will I require at thine hand. 03:23.780 --> 03:28.380 Nevertheless, if thou warn the righteous man that the righteous sin not, 03:28.700 --> 03:31.820 and he doth not sin, he shall surely live. 03:32.440 --> 03:36.800 Because he has warned, also thou hast delivered thy soul. 03:37.580 --> 03:42.920 And the hand of the Lord was there upon me, and he said unto me, Arise, 03:43.340 --> 03:46.580 go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with thee. 03:47.200 --> 03:51.680 Then I arose, and went forth into the plain, and behold, the glory of the Lord 03:51.680 --> 03:57.240 stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Kibar, and I fell on my face. 03:58.100 --> 04:02.600 Then the Spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spake with 04:02.600 --> 04:07.000 me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine house. 04:07.700 --> 04:11.640 But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, 04:12.000 --> 04:16.340 and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them. 04:17.040 --> 04:21.040 And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be 04:21.040 --> 04:26.280 dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover, for they are a rebellious house. 04:27.020 --> 04:31.940 But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, 04:32.540 --> 04:38.340 Thus saith the Lord God, He that heareth, let him hear, and he that forbeareth, 04:38.700 --> 04:42.000 let him forbear, for they are a rebellious house.
