And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;(Ezekiel 2:9)

And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.(Ezekiel 2:10)

Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.(Ezekiel 3:1)

And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.(Ezekiel 3:3)

And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.(Ezekiel 3:4)

For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel;(Ezekiel 3:5)
