Contextual Overview
9 "Take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet and spelt and put them in one pot, and make them into bread for yourself. Eat it during the 390 days that you lie on your side. 10 The food you eat each day will weigh as much as twenty pieces of silver, and will have to last until the next day. 11 And the water you drink each day will be enough to fill a bottle. You will drink it from time to time. 12 Eat your food as you would barley cakes, making it ready in front of their eyes over a fire burning human waste." 13 The Lord said, "In this way the people of Israel will eat unclean food among the nations where I will drive them." 14 But I said, "O Lord God! See, I have never been unclean. Since I was young until now, I have never eaten what died of itself or what was torn by wild animals. No unclean meat has ever come into my mouth." 15 So He said to me, "Then I will let you make your bread over cow's waste instead of human waste." 16 And He said to me, "Son of man, I am going to take away the bread that is needed in Jerusalem. They will weigh the bread they eat and they will drink water from small cups, and be afraid 17 because there will not be enough bread and water. They will look at one another in fear, and waste away in their sin.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thou shall drink also water by measure,.... Not wine, but water; and this not as much as he would, but a certain measure; which shows great want of it, and expresses a very distressed condition see Lamentations 5:4;
the sixth part of an hin; a hin held twelve logs, or seventy two egg shells, or about three quarts of our measure; and the sixth part of one were two logs, or twelve egg shells, and about a pint of our measure; so that it was but a pint of water a day that the prophet was allowed, as a token of the great scarcity of it in the siege of Jerusalem:
from time to time shalt thou drink: as before.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Water by measure - This probably corresponds to the water of affliction 1 Kings 22:27; Isaiah 30:20. The measure of the hin is variously estimated by Jewish writers. The sixth part of a hin will be according to one estimate about 610ths, according to another 910ths of a pint. The lesser estimate is more suitable here.
