18 'Son of man, eat your bread in consternation. Moreover, drink your water hurriedly and in sorrow.
19 And say to the people of the land: Thus says the Lord God, to those who are living in Jerusalem, in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread in anxiety, and drink their water in desolation, so that the land may be desolate before its multitude, because of the iniquity of all who are living in it.
20 And cities that are now inhabited will become desolate, and the land will be forsaken. And you shall know that I am the Lord.'
21 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
22 'Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel? saying: 'The days shall be extended in length, and every vision shall perish.'
