Indeed this is what the LORD told me. He took hold of me firmly and warned me not to act like these people:

耶和华以大能的手，指教我不可行这百姓所行的道，对我这样说：

耶和华以大能的手训诫我不可行这百姓所行的道，对我这样说：

耶和华以大能的手训诫我不可行这百姓所行的道，对我这样说：

耶和华大能的手按在我身上，警告我不可效法这些人。祂说：

耶和华以大能的手托住我，教导我不要走这子民所走的道路；他对我这样说：

耶和华把大能的手放在我身上对我说话，警戒我不要走这子民所走的路；他如此说：

耶和華以大能的手，指教我不可行這百姓所行的道，對我這樣說：

耶和華以大能的手訓誡我不可行這百姓所行的道，對我這樣說：

耶和華以大能的手訓誡我不可行這百姓所行的道，對我這樣說：

耶和華大能的手按在我身上，警告我不可效法這些人。祂說：

耶和華以大能的手托住我，教導我不要走這子民所走的道路；他對我這樣說：

因為永恆主這樣對我說：他用他手的緊握力控制我，忠告我別行這人民所行的路；他說：

耶和華把大能的手放在我身上對我說話，警戒我不要走這子民所走的路；他如此說：

耶和華持我、示我勿蹈斯民之途、

耶和華深感我心、俾我勿從斯民、

主深感動我、警戒我、勿履斯民之道、曰、

This is what the Lord says to me with his strong hand upon me, warning me not to follow the way of this people:

The Lord speaks to me while his powerful hand is on me. He is warning me not to live the way these people live. He says,

For the Lord spoke thus to me with his strong hand upon me, and warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying:

The Lord has given me a strong warning not to think like everyone else does. He said,

For this is what the LORD said to me with great power, to keep me from going the way of this people:

For so the Lord spoke to me with mighty power and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,

For the Lord spoke thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:

For Jehovah spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,

For this is what the Lord said to me with great power, to keep me from going the way of this people:

For the LORD spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying,

For Yahweh spoke this to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,

A wind lifted me up and carried me away. I went bitterly, my spirit full of fury, and the hand of the LORD rested powerfully on me.

My child, do not go down their way, withhold yourself from their path;

But you, son of man, do not fear them, and do not fear their words– even though briers and thorns surround you and you live among scorpions– do not fear their words and do not be terrified of the looks they give you, for they are a rebellious house!You must speak my words to them whether they listen or not, for they are rebellious.As for you, son of man, listen to what I am saying to you: Do not rebel like that rebellious house! Open your mouth and eat what I am giving you.”

Because of this, the LORD said,“ You must repent of such words and thoughts! If you do, I will restore you to the privilege of serving me. If you say what is worthwhile instead of what is worthless, I will again allow you to be my spokesman. They must become as you have been. You must not become like them.

LORD, you coerced me into being a prophet, and I allowed you to do it. You overcame my resistance and prevailed over me. Now I have become a constant laughingstock. Everyone ridicules me.

for it is impossible for us not to speak about what we have seen and heard.”

I will instruct and teach you about how you should live. I will advise you as I look you in the eye.

Sometimes I think,“ I will make no mention of his message. I will not speak as his messenger any more.” But then his message becomes like a fire locked up inside of me, burning in my heart and soul. I grow weary of trying to hold it in; I cannot contain it.
