He said to me,“ Son of man, eat what you find here. Eat this scroll, then go and speak to the house of Israel.”

他对我说：“人子啊，要吃你所得的，要吃这书卷，好去对以色列家讲说。”

他对我说：“人子啊，要吃你所得到的，吃下这书卷；然后要去，对以色列家宣讲。”

他对我说：“人子啊，要吃你所得到的，吃下这书卷；然后要去，对以色列家宣讲。”

祂对我说：“人子啊，你要把得到的吃下去，要吃下这书卷，然后去向以色列人传讲。”

他对我说：“人子啊，把你得到的吃下去吧！吃下这书卷，然后去向以色列家说话。”

他對我說：「人子啊，要吃你所得的，要吃這書卷，好去對以色列家講說。」

他對我說：「人子啊，要吃你所得到的，吃下這書卷；然後要去，對以色列家宣講。」

他對我說：“人子啊，把你得到的吃下去吧！吃下這書卷，然後去向以色列家說話。”

他對我說：『人子啊，你所得的你要喫下去，將這書卷喫下去，然後去對以色列家講話。』

彼諭我曰、人子歟、爾所獲者食之、當食此卷、往語以色列家、

又告我曰、人子、所獲者食之、當食此卷、往見以色列族、以我言相告。

And he said to me,“ Son of man, eat what is before you, eat this scroll; then go and speak to the people of Israel.”

The Lord said to me,“ Son of man, eat what is in front of you. Eat this scroll. Then go and speak to the people of Israel.”

And he said to me,“ Son of man, eat whatever you find here. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

The voice said to me,“ Son of man, eat what I am giving you— eat this scroll! Then go and give its message to the people of Israel.”

Then He said to me,“ Son of man, eat what you find; eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

Moreover He said to me,“ Son of man, eat what you find; eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

And he said unto me, Son of man, eat that which thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.

He said to me:“ Son of man, eat what you find here. Eat this scroll, then go and speak to the house of Israel.”

Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.

He said to me,“ Son of man, eat what you see in front of you– eat this scroll– and then go and speak to the house of Israel.”

He said to me,“ Son of man, eat what you find. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me,“ Take and eat it; it will be bitter in your stomach, but it will be as sweet as honey in your mouth.”Then I took the little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I ate it, my stomach became bitter.

“ And you, son of man, listen to what I tell you: Do not be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth and eat what I am giving you.”So I looked and saw a hand reaching out to me, and there was a written scroll in it.

Practice these things; be committed to them, so that your progress may be evident to all.

“ Son of man, I have made you a watchman over the house of Israel. When you hear a word from my mouth, give them a warning from me.If I say to the wicked person,‘ You will surely die,’ but you do not warn him— you don’t speak out to warn him about his wicked way in order to save his life— that wicked person will die for his iniquity. Yet I will hold you responsible for his blood.But if you warn a wicked person and he does not turn from his wickedness or his wicked way, he will die for his iniquity, but you will have rescued yourself.Now if a righteous person turns from his righteousness and acts unjustly, and I put a stumbling block in front of him, he will die. If you did not warn him, he will die because of his sin, and the righteous acts he did will not be remembered. Yet I will hold you responsible for his blood.But if you warn the righteous person that he should not sin, and he does not sin, he will indeed live because he listened to your warning, and you will have rescued yourself.”

I came to the exiles at Tel-abib, who were living by the Chebar Canal, and I sat there among them stunned for seven days.

Next he said to me,“ Son of man, listen carefully to all my words that I speak to you and take them to heart.Go to your people, the exiles, and speak to them. Tell them,‘ This is what the Lord GOD says,’ whether they listen or refuse to listen.”

He said to me,“ Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to the rebellious pagans who have rebelled against me. The Israelites and their ancestors have transgressed against me to this day.

After King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon had deported Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, the officials of Judah, and the craftsmen and metalsmiths from Jerusalem and had brought them to Babylon, the LORD showed me two baskets of figs placed in front of the temple of the LORD.One basket contained very good figs, like early figs, but the other basket contained very bad figs, so bad they were inedible.The LORD said to me,“ What do you see, Jeremiah?” I said,“ Figs! The good figs are very good, but the bad figs are extremely bad, so bad they are inedible.”The word of the LORD came to me:“ This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Like these good figs, so I regard as good the exiles from Judah I sent away from this place to the land of the Chaldeans.I will keep my eyes on them for their good and will return them to this land. I will build them up and not demolish them; I will plant them and not uproot them.I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the LORD. They will be my people, and I will be their God because they will return to me with all their heart.
