18 Hijo del hombre, come tu pan con temblor, y bebe tu agua con estremecimiento y con anhelo;

19 Y dirás al pueblo de la tierra: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová sobre los moradores de Jerusalem, y sobre la tierra de Israel: Su pan comerán con temor, y con espanto beberán su agua; porque su tierra será asolada de su multitud, por la maldad de todos los que en ella moran.

20 Y las ciudades habitadas serán asoladas, y la tierra será desierta; y sabréis que yo soy Jehová.
