Say: I am a sign of things to come to you: as I have done, so shall it be done to them: they shall be removed from their dwellings, and go into captivity.

Say: I am your type; as I have done so it is done to them, into a removal, into a captivity, they do go.

Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so will it be done to them: they will go away as prisoners.

Say: I am your portent. Just as I have done, so shall it be done to them. They will be taken captive and moved far away.

Dic els, Ego portentum vestrum sicuti feci ita fiet illis, in transmigrationem, in caprivitatem ibunt.

Say, I am your sign,.... Which represents you, and shows what will befall you:
like as I have done, so shall it be done unto them; as he had carried out his stuff, and had removed it from one place to another, so they should be carried away out of their own land into a foreign country, as follows:
they shall remove, and go into captivity; the Babylonish captivity.

sign--portent of evil to come (Ezekiel 24:27; Zac 3:8, Margin). Fulfilled (2-Kings 25:1-7; Jeremiah 52:1-11).

I am your sign - My person is the emblem of yours, and my actions of that you shall do. And the like shall be done to you, O inhabitants of Jerusalem. We cannot say concerning our dwelling place, that it is our resting place. For how far we may be tossed from it before we die, we cannot foresee.
