4:1 | Thou also, son <01121> of man <0120>, take <03947> (8798) thee a tile <03843>, and lay <05414> (8804) it before <06440> thee, and pourtray <02710> (8804) upon it the city <05892>, [even] Jerusalem <03389>: |
4:2 | And lay <05414> (8804) siege <04692> against it, and build <01129> (8804) a fort <01785> against it, and cast <08210> (8804) a mount <05550> against it; set <05414> (8804) the camp <04264> also against it, and set <07760> (8798) [battering] rams <03733> against it round about <05439>. {battering...: chief leaders} |
4:3 | Moreover take <03947> (8798) thou unto thee an iron <01270> pan <04227>, and set <05414> (8804) it [for] a wall <07023> of iron <01270> between thee and the city <05892>: and set <03559> (8689) thy face <06440> against it, and it shall be besieged <04692>, and thou shalt lay siege <06696> (8804) against it. This [shall be] a sign <0226> to the house <01004> of Israel <03478>. {an...: or, a flat plate, or, slice} |
4:4 | Lie <07901> (8798) thou also upon thy left <08042> side <06654>, and lay <07760> (8804) the iniquity <05771> of the house <01004> of Israel <03478> upon it: [according] to the number <04557> of the days <03117> that thou shalt lie <07901> (8799) upon it thou shalt bear <05375> (8799) their iniquity <05771>. |
4:5 | For I have laid <05414> (8804) upon thee the years <08141> of their iniquity <05771>, according to the number <04557> of the days <03117>, three <07969> hundred <03967> and ninety <08673> days <03117>: so shalt thou bear <05375> (8804) the iniquity <05771> of the house <01004> of Israel <03478>. |
4:6 | And when thou hast accomplished <03615> (8765) them <0428>, lie <07901> (8804) again <08145> on thy right <03233> (8675) <03227> side <06654>, and thou shalt bear <05375> (8804) the iniquity <05771> of the house <01004> of Judah <03063> forty <0705> days <03117>: I have appointed <05414> (8804) thee each day <03117> <03117> for a year <08141> <08141>. {each...: Heb. a day for a year, a day for a year} |
4:7 | Therefore thou shalt set <03559> (8686) thy face <06440> toward the siege <04692> of Jerusalem <03389>, and thine arm <02220> [shall be] uncovered <02834> (8803), and thou shalt prophesy <05012> (8738) against it. |
4:8 | And, behold, I will lay <05414> (8804) bands <05688> upon thee, and thou shalt not turn <02015> (8735) thee from one side <06654> to another <06654>, till thou hast ended <03615> (8763) the days <03117> of thy siege <04692>. {from one...: Heb. from thy side to thy side} |
4:9 | Take <03947> (8798) thou also unto thee wheat <02406>, and barley <08184>, and beans <06321>, and lentiles <05742>, and millet <01764>, and fitches <03698>, and put <05414> (8804) them in one <0259> vessel <03627>, and make <06213> (8804) thee bread <03899> thereof, [according] to the number <04557> of the days <03117> that thou shalt lie <07901> (8802) upon thy side <06654>, three <07969> hundred <03967> and ninety <08673> days <03117> shalt thou eat <0398> (8799) thereof. {fitches: or, spelt} |
4:10 | And thy meat <03978> which thou shalt eat <0398> (8799) [shall be] by weight <04946>, twenty <06242> shekels <08255> a day <03117>: from time <06256> to time <06256> shalt thou eat <0398> (8799) it. |
4:11 | Thou shalt drink <08354> (8799) also water <04325> by measure <04884>, the sixth part <08345> of an hin <01969>: from time <06256> to time <06256> shalt thou drink <08354> (8799). |
4:12 | And thou shalt eat <0398> (8799) it [as] barley <08184> cakes <05692>, and thou shalt bake <05746> (8799) it with dung <01561> that cometh out <06627> of man <0120>, in their sight <05869>. |
4:13 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799), Even thus shall the children <01121> of Israel <03478> eat <0398> (8799) their defiled <02931> bread <03899> among the Gentiles <01471>, whither I will drive <05080> (8686) them. |
4:14 | Then said <0559> (8799) I, Ah <0162> Lord <0136> GOD <03069>! behold, my soul <05315> hath not been polluted <02930> (8794): for from my youth <05271> up even till now have I not eaten <0398> (8804) of that which dieth of itself <05038>, or is torn in pieces <02966>; neither came <0935> (8804) there abominable <06292> flesh <01320> into my mouth <06310>. |
4:15 | Then he said <0559> (8799) unto me, Lo <07200> (8798), I have given <05414> (8804) thee cow's <01241> dung <06832> (8675) <06832> for man's <0120> dung <01561>, and thou shalt prepare <06213> (8804) thy bread <03899> therewith. |
4:16 | Moreover he said <0559> (8799) unto me, Son <01121> of man <0120>, behold, I will break <07665> (8799) the staff <04294> of bread <03899> in Jerusalem <03389>: and they shall eat <0398> (8804) bread <03899> by weight <04948>, and with care <01674>; and they shall drink <08354> (8799) water <04325> by measure <04884>, and with astonishment <08078>: |
4:17 | That they may want <02637> (8799) bread <03899> and water <04325>, and be astonied <08074> (8738) one <0376> with another <0251>, and consume away <04743> (8738) for their iniquity <05771>. |
