Ezekiel 24:3-14

Ezekiel 24:3-14

[3] And utter  a parable  unto the rebellious  house,  and say  the Lord  GOD;  Set on  a pot,  set it on,  and also pour  water  into it: [4] Gather  the pieces  thereof 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] Wherefore thus saith  the Lord  GOD;  Woe  to the bloody  city,  to the pot  whose scum  is not gone out  piece  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 poured  it not upon the ground,  to cover  it with dust;  [8] That it might cause fury  to come up  to take  vengeance;  I have set  her blood  upon the top  of a rock,  that it should not be covered.  [9] Therefore thus saith  the Lord  Woe  to the bloody  city!  I will even make the pile  for fire great.  [10] Heap  on wood,  kindle  the fire,  consume  the flesh,  and spice  it well,  and let the bones  be burned.  [11] Then set  it empty  upon the coals  thereof, that the brass  of it may be hot,  and may burn,  and that the filthiness  of it may be molten  in it,  that the scum  of it may be consumed.  [12] She hath wearied  herself with lies,  and her great  scum  went not forth  out of her: her scum  shall be in the fire.  [13] In thy filthiness  is lewdness:  because I have purged  from thy filthiness  any more, till I have caused my fury  to rest  upon thee. [14] I the LORD  have spoken  it: it shall come to pass,  and I will do  it; I will not go back,  neither will I spare,  neither will I repent;  according to thy ways,  and according to thy doings,  shall they judge  thee, saith  the Lord  GOD.
