7 And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for captivity, and in the even I dig through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the twilight, and I bore it on my shoulder in their sight.

8 And in the morning came the word of the LORD to me, saying,

9 Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, What do you?

10 Say you to them, Thus said the Lord GOD; This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.
