Ezekiel 12:10-16

10Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord 1God says: “This 2pronouncement concerns the prince in Jerusalem as well as all the house of Israel who are 3in it.”’ 11Say, ‘I am 4a 5sign to you. Just as I have done, so it will be done to them; they will 6go into exile, into captivity.’ 12The 7prince who is among them will load his baggage on his shoulder in the dark and go out. 8They will dig a hole through the wall to bring it out through it. He will cover his face so that he cannot see the land with his eyes. 13I will also spread My 9net over him, and he will be caught in My net. And I will bring him to Babylon in the land of the Chaldeans; yet he will 10not see it, though he will die there. 14And I will 11scatter to every wind all who are around him, his helpers and all his troops; and I will draw out a sword after them. 15So they will 12know that I am the Lord, when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them among the countries. 16But I will 13spare a few of them from the 14sword, the famine, and plague so that they may tell of all their abominations among the nations where they go, and 15may 16know that I am the Lord.”
