Ezekiel 4:4-8
New Living Translation
4 “Now lie on your left side and place the sins of Israel on yourself. You are to bear their sins for the number of days you lie there on your side. 5 I am requiring you to bear Israel’s sins for 390 days—one day for each year of their sin. 6 After that, turn over and lie on your right side for 40 days—one day for each year of Judah’s sin.
7 “Meanwhile, keep staring at the siege of Jerusalem. Lie there with your arm bared and prophesy her destruction. 8 I will tie you up with ropes so you won’t be able to turn from side to side until the days of your siege have been completed.

Ezekiel 4:4-8
New American Standard Bible
4 “Then you are to lie down on your left side and put the wrongdoing of the house of Israel on it; you shall (A)bear their wrongdoing for the number of days that you lie on it. 5 For I have assigned you a number of days corresponding to the years of their wrongdoing, 390 days; so (B)you shall bear the wrongdoing of the house of Israel. 6 When you have completed these days, you shall lie down a second time, but on your right side, and bear the wrongdoing of the house of Judah; I have assigned it to you for forty days, a day for (C)each year. 7 Then you shall direct your face toward the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared, and (D)prophesy against it. 8 Now behold, I will (E)put ropes [a]around you so that you cannot turn from your one side to your other until you have completed the days of your siege.
