¹ A ti, sine čovečji, uzmi opeku, i metni je preda se, i izreži na njoj grad Jerusalim.

² I postavi oko njega opsadu, i načini kule prema njemu, i iskopaj oko njega opkop, i postavi vojsku oko njega, i namesti ubojne sprave oko njega.

³ Po tom uzmi tavicu gvozdenu, i metni je kao gvozden zid između sebe i grada, i okreni lice svoje suprot njemu, i on će se opsesti, i ti ćeš ga opsesti. To će biti znak domu Izrailjevom.

⁴ Potom lezi na levu stranu svoju, i metni na nju bezakonje doma Izrailjevog; koliko dana uzležiš na njoj toliko ćeš nositi njihovo bezakonje.

⁵ A ja ti dajem godine bezakonja njihova brojem dana, trista i devedeset dana, i toliko ćeš nositi bezakonje doma Izrailjevog.

⁶ A kad ih navršiš, onda lezi na desnu stranu svoju, i nosi bezakonje doma Judinog četrdeset dana; po jedan dan dajem ti za godinu.

⁷ I okreni lice svoje prema opkoljenom Jerusalimu zagalivši mišicu svoju, i prorokuj protiv njega.

⁸ I evo, vezaću te uzicama da se ne prevrneš s jedne strane na drugu dokle ne navršiš dane opsade tvoje.

⁹ I uzmi pšenice i ječma i boba i leća i prosa i krupnika, i saspi sve u jedan sud, i načini od toga sebi hleba prema broju dana u koje ćeš ležati na svojoj strani, tri stotine i devedeset dana ješćeš ga.

¹⁰ I jela tvog što ćeš jesti neka bude merom dvadeset sikala na dan; na rokove jedi ga.

¹¹ I vodu pij merom, po šestinu ina, pij na rokove.

¹² A hleb presan ječmen jedi, ispekavši ga na kalu čovečjem na njihove oči.

¹³ I reče Gospod: Tako će jesti sinovi Izrailjevi hleb svoj nečist među narodima u koje ću ih razagnati.

¹⁴ Tada rekoh: Ah Gospode Gospode, gle, duša se moja nije oskvrnila, jer od detinjstva svog do sada nisam jeo mrcinoga ni šta bi zverka razdrla, niti je ušlo u usta moja meso nečisto.

¹⁵ A On mi reče: Vidi, dajem ti goveđu balegu mesto čovečjeg kala, da na njoj ispečeš sebi hleb.

¹⁶ Zatim reče mi: Sine čovečji, evo ja ću slomiti potporu u hlebu u Jerusalimu, te će jesti hleb na meru i u brizi, i vodu će piti na meru i u čudu.

¹⁷ Jer će im nestati hleba i vode da će se čuditi među sobom i sasušiće se od bezakonja svog.

¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

² "Behold, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

³ and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all kinds of workmanship,

⁴ to devise skillful works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

⁵ and in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all kinds of workmanship.

⁶ I, behold, I have appointed with him Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the heart of all who are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded you:

⁷ the Tent of Meeting, the ark of the testimony, the mercy seat that is on it, all the furniture of the Tent,

⁸ the table and its vessels, the pure lampstand with all its vessels, the altar of incense,

⁹ the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, the basin and its base,

¹⁰ the finely worked garments--the holy garments for Aaron the priest--the garments of his sons to minister in the priest's office,

¹¹ the anointing oil, and the incense of sweet spices for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded you they shall do."

¹² Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

¹³ "Speak also to the children of Israel, saying, 'Most certainly you shall keep my Sabbaths: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that you may know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies you.

¹⁴ You shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

¹⁵ Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to Yahweh. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall surely be put to death.

¹⁶ Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.

¹⁷ It is a sign between me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.'"

¹⁸ He gave to Moses, when he finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, stone tablets, written with God's finger.
