Ezekiel 12:8-16

8And in the morningH1242 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 9“SonH1121 of manH120, has the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, the 1rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, not saidH559 to you, ‘2WhatH4100 are you doingH6213?’ 10SayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 3GodH3068 saysH559: “ThisH2088 4pronouncementH4853 concerns the princeH5387 in JerusalemH3389 as well as allH3605 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 are 5in it.”’ 11SayH559, ‘I am 6a 7signH4159 to you. JustH3512 asH3512 I have doneH6213, soH3651 it will be doneH6213 to them; they will 8goH1980 into exileH1473, into captivityH7628.’ 12The 9princeH5387 whoH834 is amongH8432 them will loadH5375 his baggage on his shoulderH3802 in the darkH5939 and goH3318 outH3318. 10They will digH2864 a hole through the wallH7023 to bringH3318 it outH3318 through it. He will coverH3680 his faceH6440 soH3282H834 that he cannot seeH7200 the landH776 with his eyesH5869. 13I will also spreadH6566 My 11netH7568 overH5921 him, and he will be caughtH8610 in My netH4686. And I will bringH935 him to BabylonH894 in the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; yet he will 12not seeH7200 it, though he will dieH4191 thereH8033. 14And I will 13scatterH2219 to everyH3605 windH7307 allH3605 whoH834 are aroundH5439 him, his helpersH5828 and allH3605 his troopsH102; and I will drawH7385 outH7385 a swordH2719 afterH310 them. 15So they will 14knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068, when I disperseH6327 them among the nationsH1471 and scatterH2219 them among the countriesH776. 16But I will 15spareH3498 a fewH4557 of them from the 16swordH2719, the famineH7458, and plagueH1698 soH4616 thatH4616 they may tellH5608 of allH3605 their abominationsH8441 among the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 they goH935, and 17may 18knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068.”
