7
And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my belongings by day, as belongings for captivity, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the twilight, and I bore it upon my shoulder in their sight.
8
And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,
9
Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto you, What do you?
10
Say you unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.
11
Say, I am your sign: like I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall move and go into captivity.
12
And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to go out through it: he shall cover his face, so that he sees not the ground with his eyes.
13
My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.
14
And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.
15
And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.
16
But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
