¹⁷ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, ¹⁸ “Son of man, the house of Israel has become ^[a](A)waste metal to Me; all of them are ^(B)bronze, tin, iron, and lead in the ^(C)smelting furnace; they are the ^[b]waste metal of silver. ¹⁹ Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: ‘Because all of you have become ^[c]waste metal, therefore, behold, I am going to gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
