Ezekiel 4:6-8

Living Bible

⁶ Afterwards, turn over and lie on your right side for forty days, to signify the years of Judah’s punishment. Each day will represent one year.

⁷ “Meanwhile continue your demonstration of the siege of Jerusalem; lie there with your arm bared to signify great strength and power in the attack against her.^[a] This will prophesy her doom. ⁸ And I will paralyze you^[b] so that you can’t turn over from one side to the other until you have completed all the days of your siege.
