Ezekiel 12:1-3

Good News Translation

The Prophet as a Refugee

12 The Lord spoke to me. ^2 (A)“Mortal man,” he said, “you are living among rebellious people. They have eyes, but they see nothing; they have ears, but they hear nothing, because they are rebellious.

³ “Now, mortal man, pack a bundle just as a refugee would and start out before nightfall. Let everyone see you leaving and going to another place. Maybe those rebels will notice you.^[a]
