Saca tu equipaje como equipaje del destierro, de día, ante sus ojos. Entonces sal tú por la tarde, ante sus ojos, como los que salen al destierro.
Y sacarás tus aparejos, como aparejos de partida, de día delante de sus ojos: mas tú saldrás por la tarde á vista de ellos, como quien sale para partirse.
Entonces sacarás tu equipaje, como equipaje de cautivo, de día delante de sus ojos; y tú saldrás por la tarde a vista de ellos, como quien sale a cautiverio.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then shall thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight,.... Bring it forth, that they may be spectators of it; and "by day", that it might be manifest to them what was carried out; and this day by day, till all was removed:
as stuff for removing; that is intended to be removed from one place to another, and is carried away in the daytime, in the view of everyone:
and thou shall go forth at even in their sight; as a man, having removed his goods in the daytime, goes forth himself at evening: this denotes the flight of Zedekiah from Jerusalem in the night, Jeremiah 39:4;
as they that go forth into captivity: with a sorrowful countenance, in a mournful habit, and with airs and gestures showing anger, anxiety, and distress; with a bundle on their shoulders, and a staff in their hands.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The particulars which Ezekiel here foretold actually occurred (compare 2 Kings 25:4; Jeremiah 39:4); but at this time Zedekiah seemed to be prosperous, and the Jews at Jerusalem expected, it is clear, a long continuance of his prosperity (see Ezekiel 17:1 note).
The prophetic character of the passage is undoubted (the prophet is declared to be “a sign,†Ezekiel 12:6) - the genuineness of the book and of the position of the passage in the book, are beyond dispute; in the historical event we have an exact fulfillment. The only legitimate inference is that the prophet received his knowledge from above.
