1"Now you son of man, get yourself a brick, place it before you and inscribe a city on it, Jerusalem.1וְאַתָּ֤ה בֶן־ אָדָם֙ קַח־ לְךָ֣ לְבֵנָ֔ה וְנָתַתָּ֥ה אוֹתָ֖הּ לְפָנֶ֑יךָ וְחַקּוֹתָ֥ עָלֶ֛יהָ עִ֖יר אֶת־ יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
2"Then lay siege against it, build a siege wall, raise up a ramp, pitch camps and place battering rams against it all around.2וְנָתַתָּ֨ה עָלֶ֜יהָ מָצ֗וֹר וּבָנִ֤יתָ עָלֶ֙יהָ֙ דָּיֵ֔ק וְשָׁפַכְתָּ֥ עָלֶ֖יהָ סֹֽלְלָ֑ה וְנָתַתָּ֨ה עָלֶ֧יהָ מַחֲנ֛וֹת וְשִׂים־ עָלֶ֥יהָ כָּרִ֖ים סָבִֽיב׃
3"Then get yourself an iron plate and set it up as an iron wall between you and the city, and set your face toward it so that it is under siege, and besiege it. This is a sign to the house of Israel.3וְאַתָּ֤ה קַח־ לְךָ֙ מַחֲבַ֣ת בַּרְזֶ֔ל וְנָתַתָּ֤ה אוֹתָהּ֙ קִ֣יר בַּרְזֶ֔ל בֵּינְךָ֖ וּבֵ֣ין הָעִ֑יר וַהֲכִינֹתָה֩ אֶת־ פָּנֶ֨יךָ אֵלֶ֜יהָ וְהָיְתָ֤ה בַמָּצוֹר֙ וְצַרְתָּ֣ עָלֶ֔יהָ א֥וֹת הִ֖יא לְבֵ֥ית יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ ס
4"As for you, lie down on your left side and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; you shall bear their iniquity for the number of days that you lie on it.4וְאַתָּ֤ה שְׁכַב֙ עַל־ צִדְּךָ֣ הַשְּׂמָאלִ֔י וְשַׂמְתָּ֛ אֶת־ עֲוֺ֥ן בֵּֽית־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל עָלָ֑יו מִסְפַּ֤ר הַיָּמִים֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר תִּשְׁכַּ֣ב עָלָ֔יו תִּשָּׂ֖א אֶת־ עֲוֺנָֽם׃
5"For I have assigned you a number of days corresponding to the years of their iniquity, three hundred and ninety days; thus you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.5וַאֲנִ֗י נָתַ֤תִּֽי לְךָ֙ אֶת־ שְׁנֵ֣י עֲוֺנָ֔ם לְמִסְפַּ֣ר יָמִ֔ים שְׁלֹשׁ־ מֵא֥וֹת וְתִשְׁעִ֖ים י֑וֹם וְנָשָׂ֖אתָ עֲוֺ֥ן בֵּֽית־ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
6"When you have completed these, you shall lie down a second time, but on your right side and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah; I have assigned it to you for forty days, a day for each year.6וְכִלִּיתָ֣ אֶת־ אֵ֗לֶּה וְשָׁ֨כַבְתָּ֜ עַל־ צִדְּךָ֤ [הימיני‪‬] (הַיְמָנִי֙) שֵׁנִ֔ית וְנָשָׂ֖אתָ אֶת־ עֲוֺ֣ן בֵּית־ יְהוּדָ֑ה אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם י֧וֹם לַשָּׁנָ֛ה י֥וֹם לַשָּׁנָ֖ה נְתַתִּ֥יו לָֽךְ׃
7"Then you shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared and prophesy against it.7וְאֶל־ מְצ֤וֹר יְרוּשָׁלִַ֙ם֙ תָּכִ֣ין פָּנֶ֔יךָ וּֽזְרֹעֲךָ֖ חֲשׂוּפָ֑ה וְנִבֵּאתָ֖ עָלֶֽיהָ׃
8"Now behold, I will put ropes on you so that you cannot turn from one side to the other until you have completed the days of your siege.8וְהִנֵּ֛ה נָתַ֥תִּי עָלֶ֖יךָ עֲבוֹתִ֑ים וְלֹֽא־ תֵהָפֵ֤ךְ מִֽצִּדְּךָ֙ אֶל־ צִדֶּ֔ךָ עַד־ כַּלּוֹתְךָ֖ יְמֵ֥י מְצוּרֶֽךָ׃
9"But as for you, take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet and spelt, put them in one vessel and make them into bread for yourself; you shall eat it according to the number of the days that you lie on your side, three hundred and ninety days.9וְאַתָּ֣ה קַח־ לְךָ֡ חִטִּ֡ין וּ֠שְׂעֹרִים וּפ֨וֹל וַעֲדָשִׁ֜ים וְדֹ֣חַן וְכֻסְּמִ֗ים וְנָתַתָּ֤ה אוֹתָם֙ בִּכְלִ֣י אֶחָ֔ד וְעָשִׂ֧יתָ אוֹתָ֛ם לְךָ֖ לְלָ֑חֶם מִסְפַּ֨ר הַיָּמִ֜ים אֲשֶׁר־ אַתָּ֣ה ׀ שׁוֹכֵ֣ב עַֽל־ צִדְּךָ֗ שְׁלֹשׁ־ מֵא֧וֹת וְתִשְׁעִ֛ים י֖וֹם תֹּאכֲלֶֽנּוּ׃
10"Your food which you eat shall be twenty shekels a day by weight; you shall eat it from time to time.10וּמַאֲכָֽלְךָ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר תֹּאכֲלֶ֔נּוּ בְּמִשְׁק֕וֹל עֶשְׂרִ֥ים שֶׁ֖קֶל לַיּ֑וֹם מֵעֵ֥ת עַד־ עֵ֖ת תֹּאכֲלֶֽנּוּ׃
11"The water you drink shall be the sixth part of a hin by measure; you shall drink it from time to time.11וּמַ֛יִם בִּמְשׂוּרָ֥ה תִשְׁתֶּ֖ה שִׁשִּׁ֣ית הַהִ֑ין מֵעֵ֥ת עַד־ עֵ֖ת תִּשְׁתֶּֽה׃
12"You shall eat it as a barley cake, having baked it in their sight over human dung."12וְעֻגַ֥ת שְׂעֹרִ֖ים תֹּֽאכֲלֶ֑נָּה וְהִ֗יא בְּגֶֽלְלֵי֙ צֵאַ֣ת הָֽאָדָ֔ם תְּעֻגֶ֖נָה לְעֵינֵיהֶֽם׃ ס
13Then the LORD said, "Thus will the sons of Israel eat their bread unclean among the nations where I will banish them."13וַיֹּ֣אמֶר יְהוָ֔ה כָּ֣כָה יֹאכְל֧וּ בְנֵֽי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל אֶת־ לַחְמָ֖ם טָמֵ֑א בַּגּוֹיִ֕ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר אַדִּיחֵ֖ם שָֽׁם׃
14But I said, "Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I have never been defiled; for from my youth until now I have never eaten what died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has any unclean meat ever entered my mouth."14וָאֹמַ֗ר אֲהָהּ֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה הִנֵּ֥ה נַפְשִׁ֖י לֹ֣א מְטֻמָּאָ֑ה וּנְבֵלָ֨ה וּטְרֵפָ֤ה לֹֽא־ אָכַ֙לְתִּי֙ מִנְּעוּרַ֣י וְעַד־ עַ֔תָּה וְלֹא־ בָ֥א בְּפִ֖י בְּשַׂ֥ר פִּגּֽוּל׃ ס
15Then He said to me, "See, I will give you cow's dung in place of human dung over which you will prepare your bread."15וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלַ֔י רְאֵ֗ה נָתַ֤תִּֽי לְךָ֙ אֶת־ [צפועי] (צְפִיעֵ֣י) הַבָּקָ֔ר תַּ֖חַת גֶּלְלֵ֣י הָֽאָדָ֑ם וְעָשִׂ֥יתָ אֶֽת־ לַחְמְךָ֖ עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃ ס
16Moreover, He said to me, "Son of man, behold, I am going to break the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they will eat bread by weight and with anxiety, and drink water by measure and in horror,16וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלַ֗י בֶּן־ אָדָם֙ הִנְנִ֨י שֹׁבֵ֤ר מַטֵּה־ לֶ֙חֶם֙ בִּיר֣וּשָׁלִַ֔ם וְאָכְלוּ־ לֶ֥חֶם בְּמִשְׁקָ֖ל וּבִדְאָגָ֑ה וּמַ֕יִם בִּמְשׂוּרָ֥ה וּבְשִׁמָּמ֖וֹן יִשְׁתּֽוּ׃
17because bread and water will be scarce; and they will be appalled with one another and waste away in their iniquity.17לְמַ֥עַן יַחְסְר֖וּ לֶ֣חֶם וָמָ֑יִם וְנָשַׁ֙מּוּ֙ אִ֣ישׁ וְאָחִ֔יו וְנָמַ֖קּוּ בַּעֲוֺנָֽם׃ פ
