Ezekiel 11:3 in Context — Ezekiel 11
1 Y EL espíritu me elevó, y metióme por la puerta oriental de la casa de Jehová, la cual mira hacia el oriente: y he aquí á la entrada de la puerta veinticinco varones, entre los cuales vi á Jaazanías hijo de Azur, y á Pelatías hijo de Benaías, príncipes del pueblo.
2 Y díjome: Hijo del hombre, estos son los hombres que maquinan perversidad, y dan en esta ciudad mal consejo;
3 Los cuales dicen: No [será] tan presto: edifiquemos casas: ésta [será] la caldera, y nosotros la carne.
4 Por tanto profetiza contra ellos, profetiza, hijo del hombre.
5 Y cayó sobre mí el espíritu de Jehová, y díjome: Di: Así ha dicho Jehová: Así habéis hablado, oh casa de Israel, y las cosas que suben á vuestro espíritu, [yo] las he entendido.
