"Then the people said to me,“Will you not tell us what these things you are doing mean for us?”"
— Ezekiel 24:19, NET Bible
“And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us, that thou doest so?”
“And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us, that thou doest so? ”
“The people said to me, Won't you tell us what these things are to us, that you do so?”
“And the people said to me: Why dost thou not tell us what these things mean that thou doest?”
“And the people said to me, Will you not make clear to us the sense of these things; is it for us you do them?”
“And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us, that thou doest so?”
“Son of man, realize that I am about to take the delight of your eyes away from you with a jolt, but you must not mourn or weep or shed tears.
Groan to moan for the dead, but do not perform mourning rites. Bind on your turban and put your sandals on your feet. Do not cover your lip and do not eat food brought by others.”
So I spoke to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening. In the morning I acted just as I was commanded.
Then the people said to me,“Will you not tell us what these things you are doing mean for us?”
So I said to them:“The LORD’s message came to me:
Say to the house of Israel,‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Realize I am about to desecrate my sanctuary– the source of your confident pride, the object in which your eyes delight, and your life’s passion. Your very own sons and daughters whom you have left behind will die by the sword.
Then you will do as I have done: You will not cover your lip or eat food brought by others.
