A prophet perhaps

 

He said to me, “O mortal, I am sending you to the people of Israel, that nation of rebels, who have rebelled against Me.—They as well as their fathers have defied Me to this very day;

 

for the sons are brazen of face and stubborn of heart. I send you to them, and you shall say to them: ‘Thus said the Lord GOD’—

 

whether they listen or not, for they are a rebellious breed—that they may know that there was a prophet among them.

 

And you, mortal, do not fear them and do not fear their words, though thistles and thorns press against-a you, and you sit upon scorpions. Do not be afraid of their words and do not be dismayed by them, though they are a rebellious breed.

 

Ezekiel, Chapter 2
