Ezekiel 24:3–13

³And propose a parable unto the rebellious house, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Set on the pot, set it on, and also pour water into it. ⁴Gather the pieces thereof into it, every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones: ⁵take the choice of the flock; and also put a pile of wood under it, for the bones; make it boil well, and let the bones of it seethe therein. ⁶Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose rust is therein, and whose rust is not gone out of it! Bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall upon it: ⁷for her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the bare rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust. ⁸That it might cause fury to come up to execute vengeance, I have set her blood upon the bare rock, that it should not be covered. ⁹Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great. ¹⁰Heap on the wood, kindle the fire, boil thoroughly the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burned. ¹¹Then set it empty upon its coals, that it may be hot, and the brass of it may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, and that its rust may be consumed. ¹²She hath exhausted her labours, yet her great rust goeth not forth out of her: let her rust be in the fire. ¹³In thy filthiness is lewdness, for I have purged thee, and thou art not pure. Thou shalt no more be purged from thy filthiness, till I have satisfied my fury upon thee.
