22And you will do as I have done: you will not cover your mustache, and you will not eat the bread of men.

23Your turbans will be on your heads and your sandals on your feet; you will not mourn and you will not weep, but you will waste away in your iniquities and groan to one another.

24And Ezekiel will be a sign for you; according to all that he has done, you will do. When it comes, then you will know that I am the Lord GOD.
