Ezekiel 12:3-7
English Standard Version
3 As for you, son of man, prepare for yourself (A)an exile's baggage, and go into exile by day (B)in their sight. You shall go like an exile from your place to another place (C)in their sight. (D)Perhaps they will understand, though[a] they are a rebellious house. 4 You shall bring out your baggage by day in their sight, as baggage for exile, and you shall go out yourself (E)at evening in their sight, as those do who must go into exile. 5 In their sight (F)dig through the wall, and bring your baggage out through it. 6 In their sight you shall lift the baggage upon your shoulder and carry it out at dusk. You shall cover your face that you may not see the land, for I have made you (G)a sign for the house of Israel.”
7 (H)And I did as I was commanded. (I)I brought out my baggage by day, as baggage for exile, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my own hands. I brought out my baggage at dusk, carrying it on my shoulder in their sight.
