Ezekiel 2:6 in Context — Ezekiel 2

4 Yo pues te envío á hijos de duro rostro y de empedernido corazón; y les dirás: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová.

5 Acaso ellos escuchen; y si no escucharen, (porque son una rebelde familia,) siempre conocerán que hubo profeta entre ellos.

6 Y tú, hijo del hombre, no temas de ellos, ni tengas miedo de sus palabras, aunque te [hallas] entre zarzas y espinas, y tú moras con escorpiones: no tengas miedo de sus palabras, ni temas delante de ellos, porque son casa rebelde.

7 Les hablarás pues mis palabras, escuchen ó dejen de escuchar; porque son muy rebeldes.

8 Mas tú, hijo del hombre, oye lo que yo te hablo; no seas tú rebelde como la casa rebelde: abre tu boca, y come lo que yo te doy.
