The Siege of Jerusalem

1 ^qIn the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me: 2 ^r“Son of man, write down the name of this day, this very day. The king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day. 3 And ^sutter a parable to ^tthe rebellious house and say to them, Thus says the Lord God:

“Set on ^uthe pot, set it on;
pour in water also;
4 put in it the pieces of meat,
all the good pieces, ^vthe thigh and the shoulder;
fill it with choice bones.
5 Take the choicest one of the flock;
pile the logs ^{▼▼Compare verse 10; Hebrew the bones} under it;
boil it well;
seethe also its bones in it.
6 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: ^xWoe to the bloody city, to ^ythe pot whose corrosion is in it, and whose corrosion has not gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece, without making any choice. ^{▼▼Hebrew no lot has fallen upon it} 7 For the blood she has shed is in her midst; she put it on ^aathe bare rock; ^abshe did not pour it out on the ground to cover it with dust. 8 To rouse my wrath, to take vengeance, I have set on the bare rock the blood she has shed, that it may not be covered. 9 Therefore thus says the Lord God: Woe to the bloody city! ^acI also will make the pile great. 10 Heap on the logs, kindle the fire, boil the meat well, mix in the spices, ^{▼▼Or empty out the broth} and let the bones be burned up. 11 Then set it empty upon the coals, that it may become hot, and its copper may burn, ^aethat its uncleanness may be melted in it, its corrosion consumed. 12 ^afShe has wearied herself with toil; ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain} its abundant corrosion does not go out of it. Into the fire with its corrosion! 13 On account of your unclean lewdness, because I would have cleansed you and you were not cleansed from your uncleanness, ^ahyou shall not be cleansed anymore till ^aiI have satisfied my fury upon you. 14 ^ajI am the Lord. I have spoken; it shall come to pass; I will do it. I will not go back; ^akI will not spare; ^alI will not relent; ^amaccording to your ways and your deeds you will be judged, declares the Lord God.”

Amos 2:5

5 So ^anI will send a fire upon Judah,
and it shall devour the strongholds of Jerusalem.”

Amos 3:10-11

10 “They do not know how to do right,” declares the Lord,
^ao“those who store up violence and robbery in their strongholds.”
11 Therefore thus says the Lord God:

^ap“An adversary shall surround the land
and bring down ^{▼▼Hebrew An adversary, one who surrounds the land—he shall bring down} your defenses from you,
and ^aryour strongholds shall be plundered.”
