Ezekiel 4:3 in Context — Ezekiel 4

1 E tu, filho do homem, toma para ti um tijolo, põe-o diante de ti, e desenha sobre ele a cidade de Jerusalém;

2 E põe um cerco contra ela, e edifica contra ela uma fortaleza, e levanta uma rampa contra ela; e põe acampamentos contra ela, e ordena contra ela aríetes ao redor.

3 E tu, toma para ti uma assadeira de ferro, e põe-a como muro de ferro entre ti e a cidade; e endireita tua face contra ela, e assim será cercada, e a cercarás. Isto será um sinal para a casa de Israel.

4 E tu deita sobre teu lado esquerdo, e põe sobre ele a maldade da casa de Israel; [conforme] o número de dias que deitares sobre ele, levarás suas maldades.

5 Pois eu te dei os anos da maldade deles conforme o número de dias: trezentos e noventa dias; e tu levarás a maldade da casa de Israel.
