CHAP. IV.
1 Under the type of a siege, is shown the time
from the defection of Jeroboam to the captivity.
9 By the provision of the siege is shown
the severity of the famine.
1 Thou also, son of man, take thee a
tile, and lay it before thee, and pourtray
upon it the city, even Jerusalem;
2 And lay siege against it, and build
a fort against it, and cast a mount against
it; set the camp also against it, and set note
battering rams against it on every side.
3 Moreover take thou to thee note an iron
pan, and set it for a wall of iron between
thee and the city: and set thy face against
it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt
lay siege against it. This shall be a sign
to the house of Israel.
4 Lie thou also upon thy left side, and
lay the iniquity of the house of Israel
upon it: according to the number of the
-- --

days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt
bear their iniquity.
5 For I have laid upon thee the years
of their iniquity, according to the number
of the days, three hundred and ninety
days: note so shalt thou bear the iniquity
of the house of Israel.
6 And when thou hast accomplished
them, lie again on thy right side, and thou
shalt bear the iniquity of the house of
Judah forty days: I have appointed thee
note each day for a year.
7 Therefore thou shalt set thy face towards
the siege of Jerusalem, and thy
arm shall be uncovered, and thou shalt
prophesy against it.
8 And behold, I will lay bands upon
thee, and thou shalt not turn thee note from
one side to another, till thou hast ended
the days of thy siege.
9 ¶2; Take thou also to thee wheat, and
barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet,
and note fitches, and put them in one
vessel, and make thee bread thereof, according
to the number of the days that
thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred
and ninety days shalt thou eat of it.
10 And thy food which thou shalt eat
shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day:
from time to time shalt thou eat it.
11 Thou shalt drink also water by
measure, the sixth part of a hin: from
time to time shalt thou drink.
12 And thou shalt eat it as barley
cakes, and thou shalt bake it with human
excrement in their sight.
13 And the Lord said, Even thus shall
the children of Israel eat their defiled
bread among the Gentiles, whither I
will drive them.
14 Then said I, Ah Lord God! behold,
my soul hath not been polluted:
for from my youth even till now have I
not eaten of that which dieth of itself,
or is torn in pieces; neither hath abominable
flesh come into my mouth.
15 Then he said to me, Lo, I have
given thee cow's dung for man's dung,
and thou shalt prepare thy bread with
them.
16 Moreover he said to me, Son of
man, behold, I will break the note staff of
bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat
bread by weight, and with care; and
they shall drink water by measure, and
with astonishment.
17 That they may want bread and water,
and be astonished one with another,
and consume away for their iniquity.
