[12:17] The Lord spoke to me.
[12:18] “Mortal man,” he said, “tremble when you eat, and shake with fear when you drink.
[12:19] Tell the whole nation that this is the message of the Sovereign Lord to the people of Jerusalem who are still living in their land: They will tremble when they eat and shake with fear when they drink. Their land will be stripped bare, because everyone who lives there is lawless.
[12:20] Cities that are now full of people will be destroyed, and the country will be made a wilderness. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
