View In My Bible
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.
