Ezekiel 4:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 Then said I, Ah, Lord God, behold, my soul hath not been polluted: for from my youth up, even unto this hour, I have not eaten of a thing dead or torn in pieces, neither came there any [a]unclean flesh in my mouth.
15 Then he said unto me, Lo, I have given thee bullocks [b]dung for man’s dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.
16 Moreover, he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break [c]the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they shall eat bread by weight, and with care, and they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment.
