Ezekiel 24:3-13

New International Version

³Tell this rebellious people^(A) a parable^(B) and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“‘Put on the cooking pot;^(C) put it on
    and pour water into it.
⁴Put into it the pieces of meat,
    all the choice pieces—the leg and the shoulder.
Fill it with the best of these bones;^(D)
⁵    take the pick of the flock.^(E)
Pile wood beneath it for the bones;
    bring it to a boil
    and cook the bones in it.^(F)

⁶“‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“‘Woe^(G) to the city of bloodshed,^(H)
    to the pot now encrusted,
    whose deposit will not go away!
Take the meat out piece by piece
    in whatever order^(I) it comes.^(J)

⁷“‘For the blood she shed is in her midst:
    She poured it on the bare rock;
she did not pour it on the ground,
    where the dust would cover it.^(K)
⁸To stir up wrath and take revenge
    I put her blood on the bare rock,
    so that it would not be covered.

⁹“‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“‘Woe to the city of bloodshed!
    I, too, will pile the wood high.
¹⁰So heap on the wood
    and kindle the fire.
Cook the meat well,
    mixing in the spices;
    and let the bones be charred.
¹¹Then 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.^(L)
¹²It 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^(M) from your impurity, you will not be clean again until my wrath against you has subsided.^(N)
