Ezekiel 21:6-8
The Voice
God tells Ezekiel to act out His message. He must demonstrate what it will be like when the bad news arrives of what has happened back home in Jerusalem.
6 Now as for you, son of man, groan as if your heart is breaking. Groan in front of people because of your bitter agony! 7 When they see you, they will ask you, “Why all this loud and noisy groaning?” Answer them this way: “I am groaning because of the horrible news that is coming. Every heart will melt, every hand will fall limp, every spirit will grow faint, and every knee will become as weak as water. So pay attention. The time is near! It is going to happen soon.”
So said the Eternal Lord.
8 The word of the Eternal came to me.
