The word to make bread and eat it by weight, and the speaker’s answer
떡을 만들어 달아 먹으라는 말씀과 말하는 이의 대답
Ezekiel 4:9–17: the text says, “Take for yourself also wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel. Make bread of it. According to the number of the days that you will lie on your side, even three hundred ninety days, you shall eat of it. Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day. From time to time you shall eat it. You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin. From time to time you shall drink. You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man.” The LORD says, “Even thus will the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.” Then the speaker (“I”) says, “Ah Lord GOD! Behold, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now I have not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals. No abominable meat has come into my mouth!” The text goes on, “Then he said to me, ‘Behold, I have given you cow’s dung for man’s dung, and you shall prepare your bread on it.’ Moreover he said to me, ‘Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem. They will eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness. They will drink water by measure, and in dismay; that they may lack bread and water, be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.’” Neither edition closes these words at the end of 4:17, and the text does not say that the speaker made the bread or ate it. The Korean Revised Version names the LORD as the one who speaks at 4:15 (여호와께서 내게 이르시되), where WEB reads “he”.
