10You are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: This word has to do with the ruler in Jerusalem and all the children of Israel in it.
11Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so will it be done to them: they will go away as prisoners.
12And the ruler who is among them will take his goods on his back in the dark and go out: he will make a hole in the wall through which to go out: he will have his face covered so that he may not be seen.
13And my net will be stretched out on him, and he will be taken in my cords: and I will take him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldaeans; but he will not see it, and there death will come to him.
14And all his helpers round about him and all his armies I will send in flight to every wind; and I will let loose a sword after them.
15And they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I send them in flight among the nations, driving them out through the countries.
16But a small number of them I will keep from the sword, from the need of food, and from disease, so that they may make clear all their disgusting ways among the nations where they come; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
