Therefore thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and thine arm shall be uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 4 of Ezekiel. Ezekiel symbolically represents the siege of Jerusalem. Lying on his sides and symbolically bearing the guilt of Israel and Judah turns his own body into a prophetic instrument. Prophecy is not limited to words: the messenger’s life becomes a representation of the judgment that is approaching.

Und richte dein Angesicht und deinen bloßen Arm wider das belagerte Jerusalem und weissage wider dasselbe.
Y al cerco de Jerusalem afirmarás tu rostro, y descubierto tu brazo, profetizarás contra ella.
Dirige tu rostro hacia el asedio de Jerusalén y, con el brazo descubierto, profetiza contra ella.
Tu tourneras ta face et ton bras nu vers Jérusalem assiégée, et tu prophétiseras contre elle.
E ferma la tua faccia all’assedio di Gerusalemme, e sbracciati, e profetizza contro ad essa.
Dirigirás, pois, o teu rosto para o cerco de Jerusalém, com o teu braço descoberto, e profetizarás contra ela.
你要把你的臉對著被困的 耶路撒冷 ,露出膀臂,說預言攻擊這城。
