Ezekiel 24:6-14

6“‘Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: Woe to the city of bloodshed, the pot that has corrosion inside it, and its corrosion has not come out of it! Empty it piece by piece; lots should not be cast for its contents.

7For the blood she shed is still within her. She put it out on the bare rock; she didn’t pour it on the ground to cover it with dust.

8In order to stir up wrath and take vengeance, I have put her blood on the bare rock, so that it would not be covered.

9“‘Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: Woe to the city of bloodshed! I myself will make the pile of kindling large.

10Pile on the logs and kindle the fire! Cook the meat well and mix in the spices! Let the bones be burned!

11Set the empty pot on its coals so that it becomes hot and its copper glows. Then its impurity will melt inside it; its corrosion will be consumed.

12It has frustrated every effort; its thick corrosion will not come off. Into the fire with its corrosion!

13Because of the depravity of your uncleanness — since I tried to purify you, but you would not be purified from your uncleanness — you will not be pure again until I have satisfied my wrath on you.

14I, the Lord, have spoken. It is coming, and I will do it! I will not refrain, I will not show pity, and I will not relent. I will judge you according to your ways and deeds. This is the declaration of the Lord God.’”
