²⁸The brightness all around him looked like a rainbow in the clouds. It was like the Lord’s glory. When I saw it, I immediately bowed down, and I heard someone speaking.

2ND CHAPTER

Ezekiel’s Vision of a Scroll

¹He said to me, “Son of man, stand up, and I will speak to you.” ²As he spoke to me, the Spirit entered me, stood me on my feet, and I heard him speaking to me.

³He said to me, “Son of man, I am sending you to the people of Israel. They are people from a nation that has rebelled against me. They and their ancestors have rebelled against me to this day. ⁴I am sending you to these defiant and stubborn children. Tell them, ‘This is what the Almighty Lord says.’ ⁵Whether these rebellious people listen or not, they will realize that a prophet has been among them. ⁶Son of man, don’t be afraid of them or the things they say. Don’t be afraid, even though thorns and thistles are around you and you live among scorpions. Don’t let the things they say frighten you. Don’t be terrified in their presence, even though they are rebellious people. ⁷Speak my words to them whether they listen or not, because they are rebellious.
