Lamentations 5:4

¹For, behold, ^[+] the Lord, GOD ^[+] of Armies, takes away from Jerusalem and from Judah supply and support, the whole supply of bread, and the whole supply of water;

⁴⁸therefore you will serve your enemies whom the LORD sends against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in lack of all things. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you.

⁹“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. ¹⁰Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels^[+] a day. From time to time you shall eat it. ¹¹You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin.^[+] From time to time you shall drink. ¹²You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man.” ¹³The LORD said, “Even thus will the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.”

¹⁴Then I said, “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!”

¹⁵Then he said to me, “Behold, I have given you cow’s dung for man’s dung, and you shall prepare your bread on it.”

¹⁶Moreover 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; ¹⁷that they may lack bread and water, be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
