Ezekiel 4

Gen Z: Ezekiel 4

1Yo, son of man, grab a tile and put it down, then sketch out the city, like Jerusalem, no cap.

2Set up a siege, build a fort, and throw up a ramp; camp out against it and bring the battering rams, this is gonna pop off.

3Also, take an iron pan and use it as a wall between you and the city; face it, it's getting besieged, and this is a sign for Israel, fr.

4Lay on your left side and take on the sins of Israel; however long you chill there, that’s how long you bear their iniquity, periodt.

5I've laid on you their sins for 390 days; you'll carry the weight of Israel's iniquity, that's savage.

6When you wrap that up, switch to your right side and bear the sins of Judah for 40 days, each day equals a year, bet.

7Set your face towards the siege of Jerusalem, your arm's gonna be exposed, and you'll prophesy against it, lit.

8Just so you know, I’m gonna tie you up, and you can’t switch sides until the siege days are done, no cap.

9Also, grab some wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and fitches; throw them in one container and make bread for 390 days, that’s what you’re eating.

10Your meat's gotta be weighed out, 20 shekels a day; you’ll eat it whenever, no stress.

11You’ll drink water measured out, like a sixth of an hin; sip it from time to time, fr.

12Eat it like barley cakes, but bake it using human dung in front of everyone, that’s wild.

13The Lord said, "This is how Israel’s gonna eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles where I send them, no cap."

14I was like, "Ah Lord God! My soul’s been clean; I've never eaten anything that died on its own or was ripped apart, no sus food in my mouth."

15Then He said, "I’m giving you cow dung instead of human dung, and you’ll use it to prep your bread, bet."

16He said, "Son of man, I’m breaking the bread supply in Jerusalem; they’ll eat by weight and be careful, and drink water measured out, it’s gonna be a vibe."

17They’ll be short on bread and water, shocked at each other, and waste away because of their iniquity, fr.

KJV: Ezekiel 4

1Thou also, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee, and pourtray upon it the city, even Jerusalem:

2And lay siege against it, and build a fort against it, and cast a mount against it; set the camp also against it, and set battering rams against it round about.

3Moreover take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.

4Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.

5For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

6And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.

7Therefore thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and thine arm shall be uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.

8And, behold, I will lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thee from one side to another, till thou hast ended the days of thy siege.

9Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.

10And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.

11Thou shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part of an hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.

12And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight.

13And the Lord said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them.

14Then said I, Ah Lord God! behold, my soul hath not been polluted: for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth.

15Then he said unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow’s dung for man’s dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.

16Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with care; and they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment:

17That they may want bread and water, and be astonied one with another, and consume away for their iniquity.
