New International Version NIV
17 Then this message came to me from the LORD :
17
The word of the LORD came to me:
18 “Son of man, tremble as you eat your food. Shake with fear as you drink your water.
18
“Son of man, tremble as you eat your food, and shudder in fear as you drink your water.
19 Tell the people, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says concerning those living in Israel and Jerusalem: They will eat their food with trembling and sip their water in despair, for their land will be stripped bare because of their violence.
19
Say to the people of the land: ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says about those living in Jerusalem and in the land of Israel: They will eat their food in anxiety and drink their water in despair, for their land will be stripped of everything in it because of the violence of all who live there.
20 The cities will be destroyed and the farmland made desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD .’”
20
The inhabited towns will be laid waste and the land will be desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’ ”
