Ezekiel 4:15-17
International Standard Version
15 “Very well,” he responded. “I’ll allow you to substitute cow’s dung for human dung. Cook your food[a] over that.”
16 He also told me, “Son of Man, look! I’m about to disrupt the source[b] of bread in Jerusalem. As a result, they’ll ration bread by weight while their terror continues to grow and they’ll ration drinking water while their horror continues to mount! 17 Indeed, they’ll need bread and water, but everyone will be panic-stricken as they waste away in their iniquity.”
