Ezekiel 4:13-17 New King James Version (NKJV)

13. Then the Lord said, “So shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, where I will drive them.”

14. So I said, “Ah, Lord God! Indeed I have never defiled myself from my youth till now; I have never eaten what died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has abominable flesh ever come into my mouth.”

15. Then He said to me, “See, I am giving you cow dung instead of human waste, and you shall prepare your bread over it.”

16. Moreover He said to me, “Son of man, surely I will cut off the supply of bread in Jerusalem; they shall eat bread by weight and with anxiety, and shall drink water by measure and with dread,

17. that they may lack bread and water, and be dismayed with one another, and waste away because of their iniquity.
