12 1 The parable of the captivity. 18 Another parable whereby the distress of hunger and thirst is signified.

The word of the Lord also came unto me, saying,

Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see [a]not: they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house.

Therefore thou son of man, [b]prepare thy stuff to go into captivity, and go forth by day in their sight: and thou shalt pass from thy place to another place in their sight, if it be possible that they may consider it: for they are a rebellious house.
