Bible verse
But I will spread My net over him, and he will be caught in My snare. I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans; yet he will not see it, and there he will die.
Ezekiel 12:13 · BSB
The verses around it, from Ezekiel 12.
9 “Son of man, hasn’t the rebellious house of Israel asked you, ‘What are you doing?’
10 Tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel who are there.’
11 You are to say, ‘I am a sign to you.’ Just as it happened here, so will it be done to them; they will go into exile as captives.
12 And at dusk the prince among them will lift his bags to his shoulder and go out. They will dig through the wall to bring him out. He will cover his face so he cannot see the land.
13 But I will spread My net over him, and he will be caught in My snare. I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans; yet he will not see it, and there he will die.
14 And I will scatter to every wind all the attendants around him and all his troops, and I will draw a sword to chase after them.
15 And they will know that I am the LORD, when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them throughout the countries.
16 But I will spare a few of them from sword and famine and plague, so that in the nations to which they go, they can recount all their abominations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
17 Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
