8 In the morning, the word of Adonai came to me saying,
9 “Son of man, has the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, ‘What are you doing?’
10 Say to them, ‘Thus says Adonai Elohim: this burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel there.’
11 Say, ‘I am a sign for you. Just as I have done, so it will be done to them—they will go into exile, into captivity.
12 The prince who is among them will bear a burden on his shoulder, and go out in the darkness. They will dig through the wall to get out; he will cover his face so that he cannot see the land with his eyes.
13 I will spread out My net upon him, so he will be caught in My net. I will bring him to Babylon, to the land of the Chaldeans. He will not see it, though he will die there.
14 I will disperse toward every wind all that surround him to help him and all his troops. I will draw out the sword after them.
