Ezekiel 3:5 in context

  1. 3And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
  2. 4And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
  3. 5For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel;
  4. 6not to many peoples of a strange speech and of a hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, if I sent thee to them, they would hearken unto thee.
  5. 7But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and of a stiff heart.
