Ezekiel 12:8-16
8In the morningH1242 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 9“SonH1121 of manH120, has not the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, the 1rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, saidH559 to you, ‘2WhatH4100 are you doingH6213?’ 10SayH559 to them, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 3GodH3068, “ThisH2088 45burdenH4853 concerns the princeH5387 in JerusalemH3389 as well as allH3605 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 are 6in it.”’ 11SayH559, ‘I am 7a 8signH4159 to you. As I have doneH6213, soH3651 it will be doneH6213 to them; they will 9goH1980 into exileH1473, into captivityH7628.’ 12The 10princeH5387 whoH834 is amongH8432 them will loadH5375 his baggage on his shoulderH3802 in the darkH5939 and goH3318 out. 11They will digH2864 a hole through the wallH7023 to bringH3318 it out. He will coverH3680 his faceH6440 soH3282H834 that he can not seeH7200 the landH776 with his eyesH5869. 13I will also spreadH6566 My 12netH7568 overH5921 him, and he will be caughtH8610 in My snareH4686. And I will bringH935 him to BabylonH894 in the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; yet he will 13not seeH7200 it, though he will dieH4191 thereH8033. 14I will 14scatterH2219 to everyH3605 windH7307 allH3605 whoH834 are aroundH5439 him, his helpersH5828 and allH3605 his troopsH102; and I will drawH7385 out a swordH2719 afterH310 them. 15So they will 15knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068 when I scatterH6327 them among the nationsH1471 and spreadH2219 them among the countriesH776. 16But I will 16spareH3498 a fewH4557 of them from the 17swordH2719, the famineH7458 and the pestilenceH1698 that they may tellH5608 allH3605 their abominationsH8441 among the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 they goH935, and 18may 19knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068.”
