Ezekiel 12:17-20 - Ezekiel Dramatizes Israel's Anxiety
17 Moreover, the word of the LORD came unto me saying, 18 "Thou son of man: with a fearful trembling shalt thou eat thy bread, with carefulness and sorrow shalt thou drink thy water. 19 And unto the people of the land, speak thou on this manner: 'Thus sayeth the LORD God to them that dwell in Jerusalem, and to the land of Israel: Ye shall eat your bread with sorrow, and drink your water with heaviness. Yea, the land with the fullness thereof shall be laid waste, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein. 20 And the cities that now be well occupied, shall be void, and the land desolate: that ye may know how that I am the LORD.'"
