Ezekiel 4

1 “And you, son of man, take a brick for yourself, and you have put it before you, and have carved a city on it—Jerusalem,

And you O son of humankind take yourself a brick and you will set it before you and you will inscribe on it a city Jerusalem.

2 and have placed a siege against it, and built a fortification against it, and poured out a mound against it, and placed camps against it, indeed, set battering-rams against it all around.

And you will make on it a siege and you will build on it a siege-wall and you will pour out on it a mound and you will set up on it armies and set on it battering-rams all around.

3 And you, take an iron pan for yourself, and you have made it a wall of iron between you and the city; and you have prepared your face against it, and it has been in a siege, indeed, you have laid siege against it. It [is] a sign to the house of Israel.

And you take yourself a baking tray of iron and you will make it a wall of iron between you and between the city and you will direct face your to it and it will be in state of siege and you will lay siege on it [will be] a sign it for [the] house of Israel.

4 And you, lie on your left side, and you have placed the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; the number of the days that you lie on it, you bear their iniquity.

And you lie down on side your left and you will put [the] iniquity of [the] house of Israel on it [the] number of the days which you will lie on it you will bear iniquity their.

5 And I have laid the years of their iniquity on you, the number of days, three hundred and ninety days; and you have borne the iniquity of the house of Israel.

And I I have assigned to you [the] years of iniquity their to [the] number of days three hundreds and ninety day[s] and you will bear [the] iniquity of [the] house of Israel.

6 And you have completed these, and have lain on your right side, a second time, and have borne the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days—a day for a year—a day for a year I have appointed to you.

And you will complete these and you will lie down on side your (right *Q(K)*) a second [time] and you will bear [the] iniquity of [the] house of Judah forty day[s] a day for the year a day for the year I have assigned it to you.

7 And to the siege of Jerusalem you prepare your face, and your arm [is] uncovered, and you have prophesied concerning it.

And to [the] siege of Jerusalem you will direct face your and arm your [will be] bared and you will prophesy on it.

8 And behold, I have put thick bands on you, and you do not turn from side to side until your completing the days of your siege.

And there! I will put on you ropes and not you will turn yourself from side your to side your until completing you [the] days of siege your.

9 And you, take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and you have put them in one vessel, and made them for bread for yourself; the number of the days that you are lying on your side—three hundred and ninety days—you eat it.

And you take yourself wheat and barley and bean[s] and lentils and millet and spelt and you will put them in a vessel one and you will make them for yourself into bread [the] number of the days which you - [will be] lying on side your three hundreds and ninety day[s] you will eat it.

10 And your food that you eat [is] by weight, twenty shekels daily; from time to time you eat it.

And food your which you will eat it by weight [will be] twenty shekel[s] to the day from time to time you will eat it.

11 And you drink water by measure, a sixth part of the hin; from time to time you drink [it].

And water by measure you will drink sixth of hin from time to time you will drink [it].

12 And you eat it [as] barley-cake, and it with dung—the filth of man—you bake before their eyes.”

And a bread cake of barley you will eat it and it in [the] dung of [the] excrement of humankind you will bake it to eyes their.

13 And YHWH says, “Thus the sons of Israel eat their defiled bread among the nations to where I drive them.”

And he said Yahweh thus they will eat [the] people of Israel bread their unclean among the nations where I will banish them there.

14 And I say, “Aah! Lord YHWH, behold, my soul is not defiled, and carcass, and torn thing, I have not eaten from my youth, even until now; nor has abominable flesh come into my mouth.”

And I said alas! O Lord Yahweh here! self my not [has been] made unclean and a carcass and a torn animal not I have eaten since youth my and until now and not it has gone in mouth my [the] flesh of unclean meat.

15 And He says to me, “See, I have given to you bullock’s dung instead of man’s dung, and you have made your bread by it.”

And he said to me see I give to you ([the] dung of *Q(k)*) cattle in place of [the] dung of humankind and you will make bread your on them.

16 And He says to me, “Son of man, behold, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they have eaten bread by weight and with fear; and water by measure and with astonishment, they drink;

And he said to me O son of humankind here I [am] about to break [the] staff of bread in Jerusalem and they will eat bread by weight and in anxiety and water by measure and in horror they will drink.

17 so that they lack bread and water, and have been astonished with one another, and been consumed in their iniquity.”

So that they may lack bread and water and they will be appalled everyone and brother his and they will waste away in iniquity their.
