18Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with fearfulness;
19and tell the people of the land, Thus says the Lord Yahweh concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with fearfulness, and drink their water in dismay, that her land may be desolate, [and despoiled] of all that is therein, because of the violence of all those who dwell therein.
20The cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.
22Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?
23Tell them therefore, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but tell them, The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of every vision.
24For there shall be no more any false vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.
