Ezekiel 12:5-7

International Standard Version

⁵ While they continue to watch, dig a hole for yourself in the wall and enter through it.

⁶ “While they’re watching, carry your luggage^[a] on your shoulder and go out in total^[b] darkness. Cover your face so that you won’t see the land, because I’m using you as a sign to Israel’s house.”

⁷ I did just as I was commanded. I brought out the luggage as if it were luggage for exile. I did this during the day. Then in the evening I dug a hole in the wall with my hand and brought the luggage out in total^[c] darkness and carried it out on my shoulder while they were watching.
