The word of
the
L
ORD
also came unto me, saying,
2
Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they
are
a rebellious house.
3
Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, and remove by day in their sight; and thou shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they
be
a rebellious house.
4
Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for removing: and thou shalt go forth at even in their sight, as they that go forth into captivity.
5
Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.
6
In their sight shalt thou bear
it
upon
thy
shoulders,
and
carry
it
forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover thy face, that thou see not the ground: for I have set thee
for
a sign unto the house of Israel.
7
And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for captivity, and in the even I digged through the wall with mine hand; I brought
it
forth in the twilight,
and
I bare
it
upon
my
shoulder in their sight.
8
And in the morning came the word of the
L
ORD
unto me, saying,
9
Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou?
10
Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord
G
OD
; This burden
concerneth
the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that
are
among them.
11
Say, I
am
your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall remove
and
go into captivity.
12
And the prince that
is
among them shall bear upon
his
shoulder in the twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby: he shall cover his face, that he see not the ground with
his
eyes.
13
My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon
to
the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.
14
And I will scatter toward every wind all that
are
about him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.
15
And they shall know that I
am
the
L
ORD
, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.
16
But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the heathen whither they come; and they shall know that I
am
the
L
ORD
.
17
Moreover the word of the
L
ORD
came to me, saying,
18
Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with carefulness;
19
And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord
G
OD
of the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
and
of the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment, that her land may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the violence of all them that dwell therein.
20
And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I
am
the
L
ORD
.
21
And the word of the
L
ORD
came unto me, saying,
22
Son of man, what
is
that proverb
that
ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth?
23
Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord
G
OD
; I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.
24
For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.
25
For I
am
the
L
ORD
: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the Lord
G
OD
.
26
Again the word of the
L
ORD
came to me, saying,
27
Son of man, behold,
they of
the house of Israel say, The vision that he seeth
is
for many days
to come
, and he prophesieth of the times
that are
far off.
28
Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord
G
OD
; There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord
G
OD
.
