Tree Of Life Version

Ezekiel 4:4-13 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

4. “Then you are to lie on your left side, and set on it the punishment of the house of Israel; according to the number of days that you lie on it, you will bear their iniquity.

5. I have appointed the years of their punishment to you as a number of days—390 days. So you will bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

6. When you have completed these, you will lie on your right side and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah—40 days—a day for each year, I have appointed to you.

7. You will set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm bared, and prophesy against it.

8. “Behold, I will put ropes upon you. You will not be able to turn from side to side until you have completed the days of your siege.

9. Take wheat and barley, beans and lentils, millet and rye, and put them in one bowl. You will make bread from them for the number of days that you will lie on your side; for 390 days, you will eat it.

10. The food that you will eat will be 20 shekels a day by weight. You may eat from it from time to time.

11. You are also to drink water by measure, a sixth of a hin. You may drink it from time to time.

12. Eat it as barley cakes. Bake it on human dung before their eyes.”

13. Then Adonai said, “This is how Bnei-Yisrael will eat their bread—unclean, among the nations where I will scatter them.”
