Ezekiel 2:6 in Context — Ezekiel 2

4 Ce sont des enfants à la face impudente et au cœur endurci; je t’envoie vers eux, et tu leur diras: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel.

5 Qu’ils écoutent, ou qu’ils n’écoutent pas, car c’est une famille de rebelles, ils sauront qu’un prophète est au milieu d’eux.

6 Et toi, fils de l’homme, ne les crains pas et ne crains pas leurs discours, quoique tu aies auprès de toi des ronces et des épines, et que tu habites avec des scorpions; ne crains pas leurs discours et ne t’effraie pas de leurs visages, quoiqu’ils soient une famille de rebelles.

7 Tu leur diras mes paroles, qu’ils écoutent ou qu’ils n’écoutent pas, car ce sont des rebelles.

8 Et toi, fils de l’homme, écoute ce que je vais te dire! Ne sois pas rebelle, comme cette famille de rebelles! Ouvre ta bouche, et mange ce que je te donnerai!
