Ezekiel 11:3-7

3who say, ‘The time is not near to build houses; this city is the caldron, and we are the meat.’

4Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man!”

5Then the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said to me, “Speak! ‘Thus says the Lord: “Thus you have said, O house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.

6You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.”

7Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Your slain whom you have laid in its midst, they are the meat, and this city is the caldron; but I shall bring you out of the midst of it.
