Ezekiel 4:4-6
Amplified Bible
4 “Then lie down on your left side (toward the north) to bear [symbolically] the wickedness and punishment of the [a]house of Israel. You shall bear their wickedness and punishment for the number of days that you lie on your side. 5 For I have assigned you the years of their wickedness and punishment, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days [representing three hundred and ninety years]; in this way you shall bear [symbolically] the wickedness and punishment of the house of Israel. 6 When you have completed these [days for Israel], lie down again, but on your right side (toward the south), and you shall bear the wickedness and punishment of the [b]house of Judah forty days. I have assigned you one day for each year.
