Ezekiel 12:3-16

3Therefore, thou sonH1121 of manH120, prepareH6213 thee stuffH3627 for removingH1473, and removeH1540 by dayH3119 in their sightH5869; and thou shalt removeH1540 from thy placeH4725 to anotherH312 placeH4725 in their sightH5869: it may be they will considerH7200, though they be a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.1 4Then shalt thou bring forthH3318 thy stuffH3627 by dayH3119 in their sightH5869, as stuffH3627 for removingH1473: and thou shalt go forthH3318 at evenH6153 in their sightH5869, as they that go forthH4161 into captivityH1473.2 5DigH2864 thou through the wallH7023 in their sightH5869, and carry outH3318 thereby.3 6In their sightH5869 shalt thou bearH5375 it upon thy shouldersH3802, and carry it forthH3318 in the twilightH5939: thou shalt coverH3680 thy faceH6440, that thou seeH7200 not the groundH776: for I have setH5414 thee for a signH4159 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. 7And I didH6213 so as I was commandedH6680: I brought forthH3318 my stuffH3627 by dayH3119, as stuffH3627 for captivityH1473, and in the evenH6153 I diggedH2864 through the wallH7023 with mine handH3027; I brought it forthH3318 in the twilightH5939, and I bareH5375 it upon my shoulderH3802 in their sightH5869.4

8And in the morningH1242 came the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 unto me, sayingH559, 9SonH1121 of manH120, hath not the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, the rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, saidH559 unto thee, What doestH6213 thou? 10SayH559 thou unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069; This burdenH4853 concerneth the princeH5387 in JerusalemH3389, and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 that are amongH8432 them. 11SayH559, I am your signH4159: like as I have doneH6213, so shall it be doneH6213 unto them: they shall removeH1473 and goH3212 into captivityH7628.5 12And the princeH5387 that is amongH8432 them shall bearH5375 upon his shoulderH3802 in the twilightH5939, and shall go forthH3318: they shall digH2864 through the wallH7023 to carry outH3318 thereby: he shall coverH3680 his faceH6440, thatH3282 he seeH7200 not the groundH776 with his eyesH5869. 13My netH7568 also will I spreadH6566 upon him, and he shall be takenH8610 in my snareH4686: and I will bringH935 him to BabylonH894 to the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; yet shall he not seeH7200 it, though he shall dieH4191 there. 14And I will scatterH2219 toward every windH7307 all that are aboutH5439 him to helpH5828 him, and all his bandsH102; and I will draw outH7324 the swordH2719 afterH310 them. 15And they shall knowH3045 that I am YhwhH3068, when I shall scatterH6327 them among the nationsH1471, and disperseH2219 them in the countriesH776. 16But I will leaveH3498 a fewH4557 menH582 of them from the swordH2719, from the famineH7458, and from the pestilenceH1698; that they may declareH5608 all their abominationsH8441 among the heathenH1471 whither they comeH935; and they shall knowH3045 that I am YhwhH3068.6
