28 Because you rage against me
    and because your insolence has reached my ears,
I will put my hook(A) in your nose
    and my bit(B) in your mouth,
and I will make you return(C)
    by the way you came.’

29 “This will be the sign(D) for you, Hezekiah:

“This year you will eat what grows by itself,(E)
    and the second year what springs from that.
But in the third year sow and reap,
    plant vineyards(F) and eat their fruit.
30 Once more a remnant(G) of the kingdom of Judah
    will take root(H) below and bear fruit above.

28 Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.

29 And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such things as grow of themselves, and in the second year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruits thereof.

30 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
