Ezekiel 12 — Context

5

Dig for yourself through the wall, before their eyes. And you shall go out through it.

6

7

Therefore, I did just as he had instructed me. I brought out my supplies in the daytime, like the supplies of one who is moving far away. And in the evening, I dug myself through the wall by hand. And I went out in the dark, and I was carried on shoulders, in their sight.

8

And the word of the Lord came to me, in the morning, saying:

9

“Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the provoking house, said to you: ‘What are you doing?’

10

Say to them: Thus says the Lord God: This is the burden concerning my leader who is in Jerusalem, and concerning the entire house of Israel, who are in their midst.

11

Say: I am your portent. Just as I have done, so shall it be done to them. They will be taken captive and moved far away.
