Ezekiel 4:9-15
9“But as for you, takeH3947 wheatH2406, barleyH8184, beansH6321, lentilsH5742, milletH1764, and 1speltH3698, and putH5414 them in oneH259 vesselH3627 and makeH6213 them into breadH3899 for yourself; you shall eatH398 it according to the numberH4557 of the daysH3117 that you lieH7901 on your sideH6654, 390H7969H3967H8673 daysH3117.
10Your foodH3978 whichH834 you eatH398 shall be 2twentyH6242 shekelsH8255 a dayH3117 by weightH4946; you shall eatH398 it from timeH6256 to timeH6256.
11The waterH4325 you drinkH8354 shall be a 3sixthH8345 of a hinH1969 by measureH4884; you shall drinkH8354 it from timeH6256 to timeH6256.
12You shall eatH398 it as a barleyH8184 cakeH5692, having bakedH5746 it in their sightH5869 over humanH120 4dungH1561H6627.”
13Then the LordH3068 saidH559, “In thisH3602 wayH3602 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 will eatH398 their breadH3899 5uncleanH2931 among the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 I will scatterH5080 them.”
14But I saidH559, “6OhH162, LordH136 7GodH3068! BeholdH2009, 8I have 9neverH3808 beenH2930 defiledH2930; for from my youthH5271 untilH5704 nowH6258 I have neverH3808 eatenH398 whatH5038 10diedH5038 of itself or was tornH2966 byH2966 animalsH2966, norH3808 has any 11uncleanH6292 meatH1320 ever enteredH935 my mouthH6310!”
15Then He saidH559 to me, “SeeH7200, I will giveH5414 you cow’sH1241 dungH6832 inH8478 placeH8478 ofH8478 humanH120 dungH1561, so that you may prepareH6213 your breadH3899 overH5921 it.”
