Thou also, son{H1121} of man,{H120} take{H3947} thee a tile,{H3843} and lay{H5414} it before{H6440} thee, and portray{H2710} upon it a city,{H5892} even Jerusalem:{H3389}

and lay{H5414} siege{H4692} against it, and build{H1129} forts{H1785} against it, and cast{H8210} up a mound{H5550} against it; set{H5414} camps{H4264} also against it, and plant{H7760} battering rams{H3733} against it round about.{H5439}

And take{H3947} thou unto thee an iron{H1270} pan,{H4227} and set{H5414} it for a wall{H7023} of iron{H1270} between thee and the city:{H5892} and set{H3559} thy face{H6440} toward it, and it shall be besieged,{H4692} and thou shalt lay siege{H6696} against it. This shall be a sign{H226} to the house{H1004} of Israel.{H3478}

Moreover lie{H7901} thou upon thy left{H8042} side,{H6654} and lay{H7760} the iniquity{H5771} of the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478} upon it; [according to] the number{H4557} of the days{H3117} that thou shalt lie{H7901} upon it, thou shalt bear{H5375} their iniquity.{H5771}

For I have appointed{H5414} the years{H8141} of their iniquity{H5771} to be unto thee a number{H4557} of days,{H3117} even three{H7969} hundred{H3967} and ninety{H8673} days:{H3117} so shalt thou bear{H5375} the iniquity{H5771} of the house{H1004} of Israel.{H3478}

And again,{H8145} when thou hast accomplished{H3615} these,{H428} thou shalt lie{H7901} on thy right{H3233} side,{H6654} and shalt bear{H5375} the iniquity{H5771} of the house{H1004} of Judah:{H3063} forty{H705} days,{H3117} each day{H3117} for a year,{H8141} have I appointed{H5414} it unto thee.

And thou shalt set{H3559} thy face{H6440} toward the siege{H4692} of Jerusalem,{H3389} with thine arm{H2220} uncovered;{H2834} and thou shalt prophesy{H5012} against it.

And, behold, I lay{H5414} bands{H5688} upon thee, and thou shalt not turn{H2015} thee from one side{H6654} to the other,{H6654} till thou hast accomplished{H3615} the days{H3117} of thy siege.{H4692}

Take{H3947} thou also unto thee wheat,{H2406} and barley,{H8184} and beans,{H6321} and lentils,{H5742} and millet,{H1764} and spelt,{H3698} and put{H5414} them in one{H259} vessel,{H3627} and make{H6213} thee bread{H3899} thereof; [according to] the number{H4557} of the days{H3117} that thou shalt lie{H7901} upon thy side,{H6654} even three{H7969} hundred{H3967} and ninety{H8673} days,{H3117} shalt thou eat{H398} thereof.

And thy food{H3978} which thou shalt eat{H398} shall be by weight,{H4946} twenty{H6242} shekels{H8255} a day:{H3117} from time{H6256} to time{H6256} shalt thou eat{H398} it.

And thou shalt drink{H8354} water{H4325} by measure,{H4884} the sixth part{H8345} of a hin:{H1969} from time{H6256} to time{H6256} shalt thou drink.{H8354}

And thou shalt eat{H398} it as barley{H8184} cakes,{H5692} and thou shalt bake{H5746} it in their sight{H5869} with dung{H1561} that cometh out{H6627} of man.{H120}

And Jehovah{H3068} said,{H559} Even thus shall the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} eat{H398} their bread{H3899} unclean,{H2931} among the nations{H1471} whither I will drive{H5080} them.

Then said{H559} I, Ah{H162} Lord{H136} Jehovah!{H3069} behold, my soul{H5315} hath not been polluted;{H2930} for from my youth{H5271} up even till now have I not eaten{H398} of that which dieth of itself,{H5038} or is torn{H2966} of beasts; neither came{H935} there abominable{H6292} flesh{H1320} into my mouth.{H6310}

Then he said{H559} unto me, See,{H7200} I have given{H5414} thee cow's{H1241} dung{H6832} for man's{H120} dung,{H1561} and thou shalt prepare{H6213} thy bread{H3899} thereon.

Moreover he said{H559} unto me, Son{H1121} of man,{H120} behold, I will break{H7665} the staff{H4294} of bread{H3899} in Jerusalem:{H3389} and they shall eat{H398} bread{H3899} by weight,{H4948} and with fearfulness;{H1674} and they shall drink{H8354} water{H4325} by measure,{H4884} and in dismay:{H8078}

that they may want{H2637} bread{H3899} and water,{H4325} and be dismayed{H8074} one{H376} with another,{H251} and pine away{H4743} in their iniquity.{H5771}
