1 And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.
2 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.
3 And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. I ate it and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey.
4 Then he said unto me, Son of man, go and enter into the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
5 For thou art not sent to a people of a profound speech nor of a hard language, but to the house of Israel;
6 not to many peoples of profound speech nor of hard language, whose words thou can not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have hearkened unto thee.
7 But the house of Israel will not desire to hear; for they do not desire to hear me: for all the house of Israel are impudent and hardhearted.
