# General Information:
Yahweh continues speaking to Ezekiel about the people of Israel.
# you are like a lovely song to them
Here "you" refers to Ezekiel, and here he represents the message he speaks. This compares Ezekiel's message to a lovely song, which means the people enjoy listening to him, but they do not think his message is important enough to obey. Alternate translation: "they think that your words are like a lovely song" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
# a lovely song
Possible meanings are 1) "a beautiful song" or 2) "a love song" or "a song about love."
# that is well played on a stringed instrument
