Ezekiel 12:12-16 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

12. The prince among them shall shoulder his load in darkness and go out through the hole they dug in the wall to bring him out. His face shall be covered so that he cannot even see the ground.

13. I will spread my net over him and he shall be caught in my snare. I will bring him into Babylon, to the land of the Chaldeans, though he shall not see it, and there he shall die.

14. All his retinue, his aides and all his troops, I will scatter to the winds and pursue them with the sword.

15. Then they shall know that I am the Lord, when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands.

16. But I will let a few of them escape the sword, starvation, and plague, so that they may recount all their abominations among the nations to which they go. Thus they may know that I am the Lord.
