NHEB(i)
10 Say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.'
11 Say, 'I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done to them; they shall go into exile, into captivity.'
12 "The prince who is among them shall bear on his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth. He shall dig through the wall and carry it through: he shall cover his face, because he shall not see the land with his eyes.
13 My net also will I spread on 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 I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.
15 They shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall disperse them among the nations, and scatter 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 where they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD."
17 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
18 "Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with fearfulness;
19 and tell the people of the land, 'Thus says the Lord GOD concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with fearfulness, and drink their water in dismay, that her land may be desolate, and all that is in it, because of the violence of all those who dwell in it.
20 The cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and you shall know that I am the LORD.'"
21 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
22 "Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, 'The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?'
