Ezekiel 4 (WEBP)

[1] “You also, son of man, take a tile, and lay it before yourself, and portray on it a city, even Jerusalem.
[2] Lay siege against it, build forts against it, and cast up a mound against it. Also set camps against it and plant battering rams against it all around.
[3] Take for yourself an iron pan and set it for a wall of iron between you and the city. Then set your face toward it. It will be besieged, and you shall lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
[4] “Moreover lie on your left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it. According to the number of the days that you shall lie on it, you shall bear their iniquity.
[5] For I have appointed the years of their iniquity to be to you a number of days, even three hundred ninety days. So you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
[6] “Again, when you have accomplished these, you shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have appointed forty days, each day for a year, to you.
[7] You shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm uncovered; and you shall prophesy against it.
[8] Behold, I put ropes on you, and you shall not turn yourself from one side to the other, until you have accomplished the days of your siege.
[9] “Take for yourself also wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel. Make bread of it. According to the number of the days that you will lie on your side, even three hundred ninety days, you shall eat of it.
[10] Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels° a day. From time to time you shall eat it.
[11] You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin.° From time to time you shall drink.
[12] You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man.”
[13] Yahweh said, “Even thus will the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.”
[14] Then I said, “Ah Lord Yahweh! Behold, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now I have not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals. No abominable meat has come into my mouth!”
[15] Then he said to me, “Behold, I have given you cow’s dung for man’s dung, and you shall prepare your bread on it.”
[16] Moreover he said to me, “Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem. They will eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness. They will drink water by measure, and in dismay;
[17] that they may lack bread and water, be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.

Ezekiel 4:10 A shekel is about 10 grams or about 0.35 ounces.
Ezekiel 4:11 A hin is about 6.5 liters or 1.7 gallons.

Ezekiel 4 (KJVS)

[1] Thou also, son H1121 of man H120, take H3947 (8798) thee a tile H3843, and lay H5414 (8804) it before H6440 thee, and pourtray H2710 (8804) upon it the city H5892, [even] Jerusalem H3389:
[2] And lay H5414 (8804) siege H4692 against it, and build H1129 (8804) a fort H1785 against it, and cast H8210 (8804) a mount H5550 against it; set H5414 (8804) the camp H4264 also against it, and set H7760 (8798) [battering] rams H3733 against it round about H5439.
[3] Moreover take H3947 (8798) thou unto thee an iron H1270 pan H4227, and set H5414 (8804) it [for] a wall H7023 of iron H1270 between thee and the city H5892: and set H3559 (8689) thy face H6440 against it, and it shall be besieged H4692, and thou shalt lay siege H6696 (8804) against it. This [shall be] a sign H226 to the house H1004 of Israel H3478.
[4] Lie H7901 (8798) thou also upon thy left H8042 side H6654, and lay H7760 (8804) the iniquity H5771 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 upon it: [according] to the number H4557 of the days H3117 that thou shalt lie H7901 (8799) upon it thou shalt bear H5375 (8799) their iniquity H5771.
[5] For I have laid H5414 (8804) upon thee the years H8141 of their iniquity H5771, according to the number H4557 of the days H3117, three H7969 hundred H3967 and ninety H8673 days H3117: so shalt thou bear H5375 (8804) the iniquity H5771 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478.
[6] And when thou hast accomplished H3615 (8765) them H428, lie H7901 (8804) again H8145 on thy right H3233 (8675) H3227 side H6654, and thou shalt bear H5375 (8804) the iniquity H5771 of the house H1004 of Judah H3063 forty H705 days H3117: I have appointed H5414 (8804) thee each day H3117 H3117 for a year H8141 H8141.
[7] Therefore thou shalt set H3559 (8686) thy face H6440 toward the siege H4692 of Jerusalem H3389, and thine arm H2220 [shall be] uncovered H2834 (8803), and thou shalt prophesy H5012 (8738) against it.
[8] And, behold, I will lay H5414 (8804) bands H5688 upon thee, and thou shalt not turn H2015 (8735) thee from one side H6654 to another H6654, till thou hast ended H3615 (8763) the days H3117 of thy siege H4692.
[9] Take H3947 (8798) thou also unto thee wheat H2406, and barley H8184, and beans H6321, and lentiles H5742, and millet H1764, and fitches H3698, and put H5414 (8804) them in one H259 vessel H3627, and make H6213 (8804) thee bread H3899 thereof, [according] to the number H4557 of the days H3117 that thou shalt lie H7901 (8802) upon thy side H6654, three H7969 hundred H3967 and ninety H8673 days H3117 shalt thou eat H398 (8799) thereof.
[10] And thy meat H3978 which thou shalt eat H398 (8799) [shall be] by weight H4946, twenty H6242 shekels H8255 a day H3117: from time H6256 to time H6256 shalt thou eat H398 (8799) it.
[11] Thou shalt drink H8354 (8799) also water H4325 by measure H4884, the sixth part H8345 of an hin H1969: from time H6256 to time H6256 shalt thou drink H8354 (8799).
[12] And thou shalt eat H398 (8799) it [as] barley H8184 cakes H5692, and thou shalt bake H5746 (8799) it with dung H1561 that cometh out H6627 of man H120, in their sight H5869.
[13] And the LORD H3068 said H559 (8799), Even thus shall the children H1121 of Israel H3478 eat H398 (8799) their defiled H2931 bread H3899 among the Gentiles H1471, whither I will drive H5080 (8686) them.
[14] Then said H559 (8799) I, Ah H162 Lord H136 GOD H3069! behold, my soul H5315 hath not been polluted H2930 (8794): for from my youth H5271 up even till now have I not eaten H398 (8804) of that which dieth of itself H5038, or is torn in pieces H2966; neither came H935 (8804) there abominable H6292 flesh H1320 into my mouth H6310.
[15] Then he said H559 (8799) unto me, Lo H7200 (8798), I have given H5414 (8804) thee cow’s H1241 dung H6832 (8675) H6832 for man’s H120 dung H1561, and thou shalt prepare H6213 (8804) thy bread H3899 therewith.
[16] Moreover he said H559 (8799) unto me, Son H1121 of man H120, behold, I will break H7665 (8799) the staff H4294 of bread H3899 in Jerusalem H3389: and they shall eat H398 (8804) bread H3899 by weight H4948, and with care H1674; and they shall drink H8354 (8799) water H4325 by measure H4884, and with astonishment H8078:
[17] That they may want H2637 (8799) bread H3899 and water H4325, and be astonied H8074 (8738) one H376 with another H251, and consume away H4743 (8738) for their iniquity H5771.

Young’s Literal Translation

Ezekiel 4 (YLT)

[1] ‘And thou, son of man, take to thee a brick, and thou hast put it before thee, and hast graven on it a city-Jerusalem,
[2] and hast placed against it a siege, and builded against it a fortification, and poured out against it a mount, and placed against it camps, yea, set thou against it battering-rams round about.
[3] And thou, take to thee an iron pan, and thou hast made it a wall of iron between thee and the city; and thou hast prepared thy face against it, and it hath been in a siege, yea, thou hast laid siege against it. A sign it is to the house of Israel.
[4] ‘And thou, lie on thy left side, and thou hast placed the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; the number of the days that thou liest on it, thou bearest their iniquity.
[5] And I-I have laid on thee the years of their iniquity, the number of days, three hundred and ninety days; and thou hast borne the iniquity of the house of Israel.
[6] And thou hast completed these, and hast lain on thy right side, a second time, and hast borne the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days-a day for a year-a day for a year I have appointed to thee.
[7] ‘And unto the siege of Jerusalem thou dost prepare thy face, and thine arm is uncovered, and thou hast prophesied concerning it.
[8] And lo, I have put on thee thick bands, and thou dost not turn from side to side till thy completing the days of thy siege.
[9] ‘And thou, take to thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and thou hast put them in one vessel, and made them to thee for bread; the number of the days that thou art lying on thy side-three hundred and ninety days-thou dost eat it.
[10] And thy food that thou dost eat is by weight, twenty shekels daily; from time to time thou dost eat it.
[11] ‘And water by measure thou dost drink, a sixth part of the hin; from time to time thou dost drink it.
[12] A barley-cake thou dost eat it, and it with dung-the filth of man-thou dost bake before their eyes.
[13] And Jehovah saith, ‘Thus do the sons of Israel eat their defiled bread among the nations whither I drive them.’
[14] And I say, ‘Ah, Lord Jehovah, lo, my soul is not defiled, and carcase, and torn thing, I have not eaten from my youth, even till now; nor come into my mouth hath abominable flesh.’
[15] And He saith unto me, ‘See, I have given to thee bullock’s dung instead of man’s dung, and thou hast made thy bread by it.’
[16] And He saith unto me, ‘Son of man, lo, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they have eaten bread by weight and with fear; and water by measure and with astonishment, they do drink;
[17] so that they lack bread and water, and have been astonished one with another, and been consumed in their iniquity.
