22 And the hand of the Lord came upon me there; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will talk with thee there.
23 Then I arose and went forth into the plain, and, behold, the glory of the Lord stood there as the glory which I saw by the river of Chebar; and I fell on my face.
24 Then spirit entered into me and set me upon my feet, and he spoke with me and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine house.
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.
