Berean Standard Bible
Ezekiel 24:3-12
3Now speak a parable to this rebellious house and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says:
‘Put the pot on the fire;put it on and pour in the water.4Put in the pieces of meat,every good piece—thigh and shoulder—fill it with choice bones.5Take the choicest of the flockand pile the fuel beneath it.Bring it to a boiland cook the bones in it.’
6Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says:
‘Woe to the city of bloodshed,to the pot now rusted,whose rust will not come off!Empty it piece by piece;cast no lots for its contents.17For the blood she shed is still within her;she poured it out on the bare rock;she did not pour it on the groundto cover it with dust.8In order to stir up wrathand take vengeance,I have placed her blood on the bare rock,so that it would not be covered.’
9Yes, this is what the Lord GOD says:
‘Woe to the city of bloodshed!I, too, will pile the kindling high.10Pile on the logs and kindle the fire;cook the meat welland mix in the spices;let the bones be burned.11Set the empty pot on its coalsuntil it becomes hot and its copper glows.Then its impurity will melt within;its rust will be consumed.12It has frustrated every effort;its thick rust has not been removed,even by the fire.
