So the LORD said to him, "Who has made man's mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? [Have] not I, the LORD?

"Now therefore, go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall say."

Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal [which] he had taken with the tongs from the altar.

And he touched my mouth [with it,] and said: "Behold, this has touched your lips; Your iniquity is taken away, And your sin purged."

And He has made My mouth like a sharp sword; In the shadow of His hand He has hidden Me, And made Me a polished shaft; In His quiver He has hidden Me."

" The Lord GOD has given Me The tongue of the learned, That I should know how to speak A word in season to [him who is] weary. He awakens Me morning by morning, He awakens My ear To hear as the learned.

"for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or resist.

Therefore thus says the LORD God of hosts: "Because you speak this word, Behold, I will make My words in your mouth fire, And this people wood, And it shall devour them.

"Now you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and I will teach you what you shall do.

"So he shall be your spokesman to the people. And he himself shall be as a mouth for you, and you shall be to him as God.

And I have put My words in your mouth; I have covered you with the shadow of My hand, That I may plant the heavens, Lay the foundations of the earth, And say to Zion, 'You [are] My people.' "

Moreover He said to me: "Son of man, receive into your heart all My words that I speak to you, and hear with your ears.

"But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak. For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak;

"For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say."
