Ezekiel 4:10-17 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

10. And thy food that thou dost eat [is] by weight, twenty shekels daily; from time to time thou dost eat it.

11. `And water by measure thou dost drink, a sixth part of the hin; from time to time thou dost drink [it].

12. A barley-cake thou dost eat it, and it with dung--the filth of man--thou dost bake before their eyes.

13. And Jehovah saith, `Thus do the sons of Israel eat their defiled bread among the nations whither I drive them.'

14. And I say, `Ah, Lord Jehovah, lo, my soul is not defiled, and carcase, and torn thing, I have not eaten from my youth, even till now; nor come into my mouth hath abominable flesh.'

15. And He saith unto me, `See, I have given to thee bullock's dung instead of man's dung, and thou hast made thy bread by it.'

16. And He saith unto me, `Son of man, lo, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they have eaten bread by weight and with fear; and water by measure and with astonishment, they do drink;

17. so that they lack bread and water, and have been astonished one with another, and been consumed in their iniquity.
