1. The word of the Lord came to me:
2. “Son of man, you are living in the midst of a rebellious house. They have eyes to see, but do not see, and ears to hear, but do not hear, because they are a rebellious house.
3. “Therefore, son of man, pack up your belongings as if for exile. During the day, while they are watching, pretend to go into exile. Go from where you live to another place. Perhaps they will understand, although they are a rebellious house.
4. Bring out your belongings packed for exile during the day while they are watching. And go out at evening, while they are watching, as if for exile.
