Ezekiel 4:16-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁶ Then he said to me: Son of man, I intend to reduce greatly the supply of food in Jerusalem. The people will ration anxiously the bread they eat and sip carefully the measure of water they are allotted each day. ¹⁷ Because of the scarcity of bread and water, they will be overwhelmed with fear and waste away because of their iniquity.
