Ezekiel 4:13-15

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹³ The Lord said, ‘This is how the Israelites will eat their bread – ceremonially unclean – among the nations where I will banish them.’^(A)

¹⁴ But I said, ‘Oh, Lord God, I have never been defiled. From my youth until now I have not eaten anything that died naturally or was mauled by wild beasts.^(B) And impure meat has never entered my mouth.’^(C)

¹⁵ He replied to me, ‘Look, I will let you use cow dung instead of human excrement, and you can make your bread over that.’
