And [as a] bread-cake of barley you shall eat it, and {with human excrement} you shall bake it before their eyes."

And he said to me, "Son of man, look, I [am] going to break the {supply} of bread in Jerusalem, and they will eat bread by weight, {anxiously}, and {rationed water}, and they will drink with horror, so that they will lack food and water, and they will be appalled {with one another}, and they will waste away because of their guilt.
