Ezekiel 24:3-13

3 “Speak a ^aparable to the ^brebellious house and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord ^{▼▼ Heb YHWH, usually rendered Lord , and so throughout the ch}God, “Put on the ^dpot, put it on and also pour water in it;
4 ^{▼▼ Lit Gather her pieces
,} ^fPut in it the pieces,
Every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder;
Fill it with choice bones.
5 “Take the ^gchoicest of the flock,
And also pile ^{▼▼ Lit bones}wood under ^{▼▼ Lit it}the pot.
Make it boil vigorously.
Also seethe its bones in it.”

6 ‘Therefore, thus says the Lord God, “Woe to the ^jbloody city,
To the pot in which there is rust
And whose rust has not gone out of it!
Take out of it piece after piece,
^{▼▼ Lit No lot has fallen on it}Without making a choice.
7 “For her blood is in her midst;
She placed it on the bare rock;
She did not ^lpour it on the ground
To cover it with dust.
8 “That it may ^mcause wrath to come up to take vengeance,
I have put her blood on the bare rock,
That it may not be covered.”

9 ‘Therefore, thus says the Lord God, ⁿ“Woe to the bloody city!
I also will make the pile great.
10 “Heap on the wood, kindle the fire,
^{▼▼ Lit Complete}Boil the flesh well
And mix in the spices,
And let the bones be burned.
11 “Then ^pset it empty on its coals
So that it may be hot
And its bronze may ^{▼▼ Lit become hot}glow
And its ^rfilthiness may be melted in it,
Its rust consumed.
12 “She has ^swearied Me with toil,
Yet her great rust has not gone from her;
Let her rust be in the fire!
13 “In your filthiness is lewdness.
Because I would have cleansed you,
Yet you are ^tnot clean,
You will not be cleansed from your filthiness again
Until I have ^{▼▼ Lit caused to rest
,} ^vspent My wrath on you.
