Ezekiel 12:8-16

8And in the morning the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

9Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou?

10Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: This burden [concerneth] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.

11Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall go into exile, into captivity.

12And the prince that is among them shall bear upon [his] shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth; they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby; he shall cover his face, that he see not the land with [his] eyes.

13And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; but he shall not see it, and there shall he die.

14And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.

15And they shall know that I [am] Jehovah when I shall scatter them among the nations and disperse them through the countries.

16But 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 nations whither they shall come; and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
