Ezekiel 12:6-11

6In their sight you shall lift the baggage upon your shoulder and carry it out at dusk. You shall cover your face that you may not see the land, for I have made you a sign for the house of Israel."

7And I did as I was commanded. I brought out my baggage by day, as baggage for exile, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my own hands. I brought out my baggage at dusk, carrying it on my shoulder in their sight.

8In the morning the word of the Lord came to me:

9"Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, 'What are you doing?'

10Say to them, 'Thus says the Lord God: This oracle concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel who are in it.'

11Say, 'I am a sign for you: as I have done, so shall it be done to them. They shall go into exile, into captivity.'
