Ezekiel 4:6-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 When you have completed this, you shall lie down a second time, on your right side to bear the guilt of the house of Judah forty days; I allot you one day for each year.(A) 7 Turning your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with bared arm[a] you shall prophesy against it. 8 See, I bind you with ropes so that you cannot turn from one side to the other until you have completed the days of your siege.(B)
