Ezekiel 12:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ “Son of man, didn’t the Israelites ask you, ‘What are you doing?’ They always refuse to obey me.

¹⁰ “Tell them, ‘The Lord and King says, “This prophecy is about Zedekiah, the prince in Jerusalem. It is also about all the Israelites who still live there.” ’ ¹¹ Tell them, ‘The things I’ve done are a picture of what’s going to happen to you.

“ ‘So what I’ve done will happen to you. You will be forced to leave home. You will be taken to Babylon as prisoners.’
