Ezekiel 12:7
Compare all
5 Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your belongings out through it.
6 In their sight you shall bear them on your shoulders and carry them out at twilight; you shall cover your face, so that you cannot see the ground, afor I have made you a sign to the house of Israel.”  
7 So I did as I was commanded. I brought out my belongings by day, as though going into captivity, and at evening I dug through the wall with my hand. I brought them out at twilight, and I bore them on my shoulder in their sight.
8 And in the morning the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
9 “Son of man, has not the house of Israel, athe rebellious house, said to you, b‘What are you doing?’  
10 Say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “This aburden concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel who are among them.” ’  
11 Say, a‘I am a sign to you. As I have done, so shall it be done to them; bthey shall be carried away into captivity.’  
12 And athe prince who is among them shall bear his belongings on his shoulder at twilight and go out. They shall dig through the wall to carry them out through it. He shall cover his face, so that he cannot see the ground with his eyes.  
13 I will also spread My anet over him, and he shall be caught in My snare. bI will bring him to Babylon, to the land of the Chaldeans; yet he shall not see it, though he shall die there.  
14 aI will scatter to every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his troops; and bI will draw out the sword after them.  
15 a“Then they shall know that I am the Lord, when I scatter them among the nations and disperse them throughout the countries.  
16 aBut I will spare a few of their men from the sword, from famine, and from pestilence, that they may declare all their abominations among the Gentiles wherever they go. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.”  

Judgment Not Postponed

17 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
18 “Son of man, aeat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and anxiety.
