Ezekiel 24:3-13

EJ2000(i) 3 And speak unto the house of rebellion by parable and say unto them, Thus hath the Lord GOD said; Set on a pot, set it on, and also pour water into it: 4 gather her pieces of meat into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones. 5 Take the choice of the flock and burn also the bones under it and make it boil well and let them seethe the bones of it therein. 6 For thus hath the Lord GOD said: Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose scum is therein and whose scum is not gone out of it! For her pieces, because of her pieces let it be removed; let no lot fall upon it. 7 For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the top of a rock; she did not poured it upon the ground, to cover it with dust; 8 that wrath might rise up to take vengeance; I have set her blood upon the high place of the rock that it should not be covered. 9 Therefore thus hath the Lord GOD said: Woe to the bloody city! I will also make a great fire, 10 multiplying the wood, kindling the fire, to consume the flesh and to make the broth, and the bones shall be burned; 11 setting afterward the empty pot upon the coals thereof that it may become red hot and may burn and that the filthiness of it may be molten in it, that the scum of it may be consumed. 12 In fraud she has become weary, and her great scum did not go forth out of her; her scum shall be in the fire. 13 In thy perverse filthiness thou shalt die because I have cleansed thee, and thou didst not cleanse thyself from thy uncleanness; thou shalt never cleanse thyself again, until I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.
