The food you eat each day will be eight ounces by weight; you will eat it from time to time.

You are also to drink water by measure, a sixth of a gallon, which you will drink from time to time.

Therefore, son of man, prophesy
and clap your hands together.
Let the sword strike two times, even three.
It is a sword for massacre,
a sword for great massacre—
it surrounds them!

For a day is near;
a day belonging to the Lord is near.
It will be a day of clouds,
a time of doom for the nations.

Doom has come on you,
inhabitants of the land.
The time has come; the day is near.
There will be panic on the mountains
and not celebration.

The time has come; the day has arrived.
Let the buyer not rejoice
and the seller not mourn,
for wrath is on all her masses.

While they offer false visions
and lying divinations about you,
the time has come to put you
to the necks of the profane wicked ones;
the day has come
for your punishment.
