4. You shall bring out your stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for moving. You shall go out yourself at evening in their sight, as when men go out into exile.
5. Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your stuff out that way.
6. In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it out in the dark. You shall cover your face, so that you don’t see the land, for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel.”
7. I did so as I was commanded. I brought out my stuff by day, as stuff for moving, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my hand. I brought it out in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in their sight.
8. In the morning, the Lord’s word came to me, saying,
9. “Son of man, hasn’t the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, ‘What are you doing?’
10. “Say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.”’
