Ezekiel 24:3-12

3And utter a parableH4912 unto the rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, and sayH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah, Set on the caldron, set it on, and alsoH1571 pourH3332 waterH4325 into it: 4gatherH622 the piecesH5409 thereof into it, even every goodH2896 pieceH5409, the thighH3409, and the shoulderH3802; fillH4390 it with the choice bonesH6106. 5TakeH3947 the choice of the flockH6629, and alsoH1571 a pile of wood for the bonesH6106 under the caldron; make it boilH1310 wellH1571; yea, let the bonesH6106 thereof be boiledH1310 in the midstH8432 of it.

6Wherefore thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: WoeH188 to the bloody cityH5892, to the caldron whose rustH2457 is therein, and whose rustH2457 is not goneH3318 out of it! take out of it pieceH5409 after pieceH5409; No lotH1486 is fallenH5307 upon it. 7For her bloodH1818 is in the midstH8432 of her; she setH7760 it upon the bare rockH5553; she pouredH8210 it not upon the groundH776, to coverH3680 it with dustH6083. 8That it may cause wrathH2534 to comeH5927 up to take vengeanceH5359, I have setH5414 her bloodH1818 upon the bare rockH5553, that it should not be coveredH3680. 9ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: WoeH188 to the bloody cityH5892! I alsoH1571 will makeH1431 the pileH4071 greatH1431. 10Heap on the woodH6086, makeH8552 the fireH784 hot, boil well the fleshH1320, and makeH8552 thick the broth, and let the bonesH6106 be burnedH2787. 11Then setH5975 it emptyH7386 upon the coalsH1513 thereof, that it may be hot, and the brass thereof may burnH2787, and that the filthiness of it may be molten in it, that the rustH2457 of it may be consumed. 12She hath weariedH3811 herself with toil; yet her greatH7227 rustH2457 goeth not forthH3318 out of her; her rustH2457 goeth not forthH3318 by fireH784.
