1. He said to me: Son of man, eat what you find here: eat this scroll, then go, speak to the house of Israel.
2. So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat.
3. Son of man, he said to me, feed your stomach and fill your belly with this scroll I am giving you. I ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
4. Then he said to me, Son of man, go now to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
5. Not to a people with obscure speech and difficult language am I sending you, but to the house of Israel.
6. Nor to many nations of obscure speech and difficult language whose words you cannot understand. For if I were to send you to these, they would listen to you.
