12 Eat the bread as you would eat barley loaves. Bake the bread in front of people, using human excrement for fuel."
12
Eat the food as you would a loaf of barley bread; bake it in the sight of the people, using human excrement for fuel.”
13 Then the LORD said, "In the same way, the people of Israel will eat unclean bread among the nations where I scatter them."
13
The LORD said, “In this way the people of Israel will eat defiled food among the nations where I will drive them.”
14 I answered, "Almighty LORD, I have never dishonored myself. From the time I was young until now, I have never eaten an animal that died by itself or was killed by other wild animals. No unclean meat has ever entered my mouth."
14
Then I said, “Not so, Sovereign LORD! I have never defiled myself. From my youth until now I have never eaten anything found dead or torn by wild animals. No impure meat has ever entered my mouth.”
