CLV(i)
7 And I do so, as I have been commanded; my vessels I have brought forth as vessels of removal by day, and at even I have dug for me through the wall with the hand; in the darkness I have brought forth, on the shoulder I have borne away, before their eyes."
8 And there is a word of Yahweh unto me, in the morning, saying,
9 `Son of man, have they not said unto you--the house of Israel--the rebellious house--What are you doing?
10 say unto them, Thus said the Lord Yahweh:`The prince [is] this burden in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel who are in their midst."
11 Say:I [am] your type; as I have done so it is done to them, into a removal, into a captivity, they do go."
12 As to the prince who [is] in their midst, on the shoulder he bears in the darkness, and he goes forth, through the wall they dig to bring forth by it, his face he covers, that he may not look on the very surface of the land."
13 And I have spread My net for him, and he has been caught in My snare, and I have brought him in to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, and it he does not see--and there does he die."
14 `And all who are round about him to help him, and all his bands, I do scatter to every wind, and a sword I draw out after them."
15 And they have known that I [am] Yahweh, in My scattering them among nations, and I have spread them through lands;"
16 and I have left of them, a few in number, from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence, so that they recount all their abominations among the nations whither they have come, and they have known that I [am] Yahweh.'"
