The LORD's word came to me:
References for Ezekiel 12:1
Human one, you live in a household of rebels. They have eyes to see but they don't see, ears to hear but they don't hear, because they are a household of rebels.
But you, human one, prepare a backpack for going into exile. In the daytime while they watch, go into exile; while they watch, go out from your place to another. Even though they are a household of rebels, perhaps they will understand.
In the daytime while they watch, carry your backpack as if for exile. At twilight while they watch, go out like those who are led out to exile.
While they watch, dig a hole through the wall and take your backpack out through it.
While they watch, shoulder your backpack and carry it out in the dark. Cover your face so that you can't see the land, because I'm making you a sign for the house of Israel.
