"Son of a human being" or "Son of humanity." God calls Ezekiel this to emphasize that Ezekiel is only a human being. God is eternal and powerful, but humans are not. See how you translated this in [Ezekiel 2:1](../02/01.md). Alternate translation: "Mortal person" or "Human"

# It has not been bound up for healing or set
|
|
|

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "No one has bound up his arm so it will heal or set it" or "No one has wrapped up his arm for healing or set it" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])

# set with a splint
|

This phrase refers to the arm being bound tightly to a straight piece of wood so that the parts of the bone will stay together and heal.
