7 And you shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they are most rebellious.
8 But you, son of man, hear what I say to you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that I give you.
9 And when I looked, a hand was sent to me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;
10 And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
