Ezek 12:10-22 : 10 Say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD; This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel who are among them.
11 Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so it shall be done to them: they shall move and go into captivity.
12 And the prince who is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry out through it: he shall cover his face, that he may not see the ground with his eyes.
13 My net also I will spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet he shall not see it, though he shall die there.
14 And 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 And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in 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 go; 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 trembling, and drink your water with shaking and with anxiety;
19 And say to the people of the land, Thus says the Lord GOD of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and of the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread with anxiety, and drink their water with desolation, that her land may be desolate from all that is in it, because of the violence of all who dwell therein.
20 And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; 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 that proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?
