And lo! thou shalt be silent, and not able to speak until the day when these things shall come to pass; because thou didst not believe in my words,—the which shall be fulfilled for their season.
Now the hand of Yahweh, had come unto me in the evening, before the coining of him who had escaped, and he had opened my mouth, by the time that he came to me in the morning, —so my mouth I was opened, and I was dumb no longer.
But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them. Thus saith My Lord Yahweh,—He that is minded to hear, let him hear, And he that is minded to forbear, let him forbear! For a perverse house, they are!
Thou shalt say, therefore, in that day, I will praise thee, O Yahweh! Though thou hast been angry with me, Thine anger turneth back. And thou dost comfort me.
In that day, will I cause to bud a horn for the house of Israel, And to thee, will I give an opening of mouth in their midst, So shall they know that, I, am Yahweh.
