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.
18Son of man, take your food with shaking fear, and your water with trouble and care;
19And say to the people of the land, This is what the Lord has said about the people of Jerusalem and the land of Israel: They will take their food with care and their drink with wonder, so that all the wealth of their land may be taken from it because of the violent ways of the people living in it.
20And the peopled towns will be made waste, and the land will become a wonder; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
