וְלֵךְ בֹּא אֶל־הַגּוֹלָה אֶל־בְּנֵי עַמֶּךָ וְדִבַּרְתָּ אֲלֵיהֶם וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵיהֶם כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה אִֽם־יִשְׁמְעוּ וְאִם־יֶחְדָּֽלוּ׃

And go, get thee to the exiles, to the children of thy people, and speak to them, and tell them. Thus says the Lord God; whether they will hear, or whether they will refuse to hear.

וַתִּשָּׂאֵנִי רוּחַ וָאֶשְׁמַע אַחֲרַי קוֹל רַעַשׁ גָּדוֹל בָּרוּךְ כְּבוֹד־יְהֹוָה מִמְּקוֹמֽוֹ׃

Then a spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, saying, Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place;

ותשאני רוח. לאחר שגמר דבריו צוה אל הרוח לשאתו אל המקום אשר בני הגולה שם:

3:13

וְקוֹל ׀ כַּנְפֵי הַחַיּוֹת מַשִּׁיקוֹת אִשָּׁה אֶל־אֲחוֹתָהּ וְקוֹל הָאוֹפַנִּים לְעֻמָּתָם וְקוֹל רַעַשׁ גָּדֽוֹל׃

משיקות. נשיקה מקישות זו אל זו ושיר נשמע בהקשתן כמו שאומר למעלה ואשמע את קול כנפיהם:

3:14

וְרוּחַ נְשָׂאַתְנִי וַתִּקָּחֵנִי וָאֵלֵךְ מַר בַּחֲמַת רוּחִי וְיַד־יְהֹוָה עָלַי חָזָֽקָה׃

so a spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and the hand of the Lord was strong upon me.
