Ezekiel 12:8–16

8  And in the morning the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 9  Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou? 10  Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: This burden concerneth the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them. 11  Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall go into exile, into captivity. 12  And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth; they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby; he shall cover his face, that he see not the land with his eyes. 13  And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; but he shall not see it, and there shall he die. 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 Jehovah when I shall scatter them among the nations and disperse them through 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 whither they shall come; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.
