Context of Ezekiel 12:14

12The prince who is among them will bear a burden on his shoulder, and go out in the darkness. They will dig through the wall to get out; he will cover his face so that he cannot see the land with his eyes. 13I will spread out My net upon him, so he will be caught in My net. I will bring him to Babylon, to the land of the Chaldeans. He will not see it, though he will die there. I will disperse toward every wind all that surround him to help him and all his troops. I will draw out the sword after them. 15So they will know that I am Adonai when I scatter them among the nations and disperse them among the countries. 16But I will let a few of them escape the sword, the famine and the pestilence, so they may tell about all their detestable practices among the nations where they go. And they will know that I am Adonai.”
