4:1 "And
you,
son
of
man,
take
a
brick
and
lay
it
before
you,
and
engrave
on
it
a
city,
even
Jerusalem.
4:2 And
put
siegeworks
against
it,
and
build
a
siege
wall
against
it,
and
cast
up
a
mound
against
it.
Set
camps
also
against
it,
and
plant
battering
rams
against
it
all
around.
4:3 And
you,
take
an
iron
griddle,
and
place
it
as
an
iron
wall
between
you
and
the
city;
and
set
your
face
toward
it,
and
let
it
be
in
a
state
of
siege,
and
press
the
siege
against
it.
This
is
a
sign
for
the
house
of
Israel.
4:4 "Then
lie
on
your
left
side,
and
place
the
punishment
of
the
house
of
Israel
upon
it.
For
the
number
of
the
days
that
you
lie
on
it,
you
shall
bear
their
punishment.
4:5 For
I
assign
to
you
a
number
of
days,
390
days,
equal
to
the
number
of
the
years
of
their
punishment.
So
long
shall
you
bear
the
punishment
of
the
house
of
Israel.
4:6 And
when
you
have
completed
these,
you
shall
lie
down
a
second
time,
but
on
your
right
side,
and
bear
the
punishment
of
the
house
of
Judah.
Forty
days
I
assign
you,
a
day
for
each
year.
4:7 And
you
shall
set
your
face
toward
the
siege
of
Jerusalem,
with
your
arm
bared,
and
you
shall
prophesy
against
the
city.
4:8 And
behold,
I
will
place
cords
upon
you,
so
that
you
cannot
turn
from
one
side
to
the
other,
till
you
have
completed
the
days
of
your
siege.
4:9 "And
you,
take
wheat
and
barley,
beans
and
lentils,
millet
and
emmer,
and
put
them
into
a
single
vessel
and
make
your
bread
from
them.
During
the
number
of
days
that
you
lie
on
your
side,
390
days,
you
shall
eat
it.
4:10 And
your
food
that
you
eat
shall
be
by
weight,
twenty
shekels
a
day;
from
day
to
day
you
shall
eat
it.
4:11 And
water
you
shall
drink
by
measure,
the
sixth
part
of
a
hin;
from
day
to
day
you
shall
drink.
4:12 And
you
shall
eat
it
as
a
barley
cake,
baking
it
in
their
sight
on
human
dung."
4:13 And
the
LORD
said,
"Thus
shall
the
people
of
Israel
eat
their
bread
unclean,
among
the
nations
where
I
will
drive
them."
4:14 Then
I
said,
"Ah,
Lord
GOD!
Behold,
I
have
never
defiled
myself.
From
my
youth
up
till
now
I
have
never
eaten
what
died
of
itself
or
was
torn
by
beasts,
nor
has
tainted
meat
come
into
my
mouth."
4:15 Then
he
said
to
me,
"See,
I
assign
to
you
cow's
dung
instead
of
human
dung,
on
which
you
may
prepare
your
bread."
4:16 Moreover,
he
said
to
me,
"Son
of
man,
behold,
I
will
break
the
supply
of
bread
in
Jerusalem.
They
shall
eat
bread
by
weight
and
with
anxiety,
and
they
shall
drink
water
by
measure
and
in
dismay.
4:17 I
will
do
this
that
they
may
lack
bread
and
water,
and
look
at
one
another
in
dismay,
and
rot
away
because
of
their
punishment.
