Ezekiel 24:9-14
English Standard Version
9 Therefore thus says the Lord God: Woe to the bloody city! (A)I also will make the pile great. 10 Heap on the logs, kindle the fire, boil the meat well, mix in the spices,[a] and let the bones be burned up. 11 Then set it empty upon the coals, that it may become hot, and its copper may burn, (B)that its uncleanness may be melted in it, its corrosion consumed. 12 (C)She has wearied herself with toil;[b] its abundant corrosion does not go out of it. Into the fire with its corrosion! 13 On account of your unclean lewdness, because I would have cleansed you and you were not cleansed from your uncleanness, (D)you shall not be cleansed anymore till (E)I have satisfied my fury upon you. 14 (F)I am the Lord. I have spoken; it shall come to pass; I will do it. I will not go back; (G)I will not spare; (H)I will not relent; (I)according to your ways and your deeds you will be judged, declares the Lord God.”

Ezekiel 24:9-14
New International Version
9 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Woe to the city of bloodshed!
I, too, will pile the wood high.
10 So heap on the wood
and kindle the fire.
Cook the meat well,
mixing in the spices;
and let the bones be charred.
11 Then set the empty pot on the coals
till it becomes hot and its copper glows,
so that its impurities may be melted
and its deposit burned away.(A)
12 It has frustrated all efforts;
its heavy deposit has not been removed,
not even by fire.
13 “‘Now your impurity is lewdness. Because I tried to cleanse you but you would not be cleansed(B) from your impurity, you will not be clean again until my wrath against you has subsided.(C)
14 “‘I the Lord have spoken.(D) The time has come for me to act.(E) I will not hold back; I will not have pity,(F) nor will I relent.(G) You will be judged according to your conduct and your actions,(H) declares the Sovereign Lord.(I)’”
