thou, O son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee: and draw upon it the plan of the city of Jerusalem. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>And lay siege against it, and build forts, and cast up a mount, and set a camp against it, and place battering rams round about it. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>And take unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face resolutely against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it: it is a sign to the house of Israel. </p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>And thou shalt sleep upon thy left side, and shalt lay the iniquities of the house of Israel upon it, according to the number of the days that thou shalt sleep upon it, and thou shalt take upon thee their iniquity. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>And I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days three hundred and ninety days: and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. <span class="reftext"><a

a day for it year, yea, a day for a year I have appointed to thee. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>And thou shalt turn thy face to the siege of Jerusalem, and thy arm shall be stretched out: and thou shalt prophesy against it. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>Behold I have encompassed thee with bands: and thou shalt not turn

number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side: three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>And thy meat that thou shalt eat, shall be in weight twenty staters a day: from time to time thou shalt eat it. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>And thou shalt drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time thou shalt drink it, <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>And thou shalt eat it as barley bread baked under the ashes: and thou shalt cover it, in their sight, with the dung that cometh out of a man. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>And the Lord said: So shall the children of Israel eat their bread all filthy among the nations whither I will cast them out. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>And I said: Ah, ah, ah, O Lord God, behold my soul hath not been defiled, and from my infancy even till now, I have not eaten any thing that died of itself, or was torn by beasts, and no unclean flesh hath entered into my mouth. <span class="reftext"><a

shall drink water by measure, and in distress. <span class="reftext"><a href="/ezekiel/4-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>So that when bread and water fail, every man may fall against his brother, and they may pine away in their iniquities. </p></div></div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">Douay-Rheims Bible<br /><br /><a href="//bereanbible.com">Section Headings Courtesy
