28 I know everything about you.
    I know where you live.
I know when you go out.
    And I know when you return home.
I know how much you shout against me,
    when you are angry.
29 Yes, you do shout at me!
    And I have heard all your proud noise.
So I will put my hook in your nose.
    I will tie a rope to your mouth.
Then I will pull you back home
    by the same way that you came.”

30 King Hezekiah, this is how you will know that I have spoken a true message from the Lord.[a] This year, you will eat crops that grow by themselves. And next year you will eat what grows from the same seeds. But in the third year you will plant seeds for yourselves, and they will give you a harvest of crops. You will plant vines again and you will eat grapes from them.
