Ezekiel 12:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ Son of man, eat thy bread in trouble: and drink thy water in hurry and sorrow.

¹⁹ And say to the people of the land: Thus saith the Lord God to them that dwell in Jerusalem in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread in care, and drink their water in desolation: that the land may become desolate from the multitude that is therein, for the iniquity of all that dwell therein.

²⁰ And the cities that are now inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
