Yehezkiel 2

¹Firman-Nya kepadaku: "Hai anak manusia, bangunlah dan berdiri, karena Aku hendak berbicara dengan engkau."

¹And he said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you."

²Sementara Ia berbicara dengan aku, kembalilah rohku ke dalam aku dan ditegakkannyalah aku. Kemudian aku mendengar Dia yang berbicara dengan aku.

²And as he spoke to me, the Spirit entered into me and set me on my feet, and I heard him speaking to me.

³Firman-Nya kepadaku: "Hai anak manusia, Aku mengutus engkau kepada orang Israel, kepada bangsa pemberontak yang telah memberontak melawan Aku. Mereka dan nenek moyang mereka telah mendurhaka terhadap Aku sampai hari ini juga.

³And he said to me, "Son of man, I send you to the people of Israel, to nations of rebels, who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me to this very day.

⁴Kepada keturunan inilah, yang keras kepala dan tegar hati, Aku mengutus engkau dan harus kaukatakan kepada mereka: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH.

⁴The descendants also are impudent and stubborn: I send you to them, and you shall say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD.'

⁵Dan baik mereka mendengarkan atau tidak--sebab mereka adalah kaum pemberontak--mereka akan mengetahui bahwa seorang nabi ada di tengah-tengah mereka.

⁵And whether they hear or refuse to hear (for they are a rebellious house) they will know that a prophet has been among them.

⁶Dan engkau, anak manusia, janganlah takut melihat mereka maupun mendengarkan kata-katanya, biarpun engkau di tengah-tengah onak dan duri dan engkau tinggal dekat kalajengking. Janganlah takut mendengarkan kata-kata mereka dan janganlah gentar melihat mukanya, sebab mereka adalah kaum pemberontak.

⁶And you, son of man, be not afraid of them, nor be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you and you sit on scorpions. Be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house.

⁷Sampaikanlah perkataan-perkataan-Ku kepada mereka, baik mereka mau mendengarkan atau tidak, sebab mereka adalah pemberontak.

⁷And you shall speak my words to them, whether they hear or refuse to hear, for they are a rebellious house.

⁸Dan engkau, anak manusia, dengarlah apa yang Kufirmankan kepadamu; janganlah memberontak seperti kaum pemberontak ini. Ngangakanlah mulutmu dan makanlah apa yang Kuberikan kepadamu."

⁸"But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Be not rebellious like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I give you."

⁹Aku melihat, sesungguhnya ada tangan yang terulur kepadaku, dan sungguh, dipegang-Nya sebuah gulungan kitab,

⁹And when I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me, and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.

¹⁰lalu dibentangkan-Nya di hadapanku. Gulungan kitab itu ditulisi timbal balik dan di sana tertulis nyanyian-nyanyian ratapan, keluh kesah dan rintihan.

¹⁰And he spread it before me. And it had writing on the front and on the back, and there were written on it words of lamentation and mourning and woe.
