Present a (A)parable to the (B)rebellious house and say to them, ‘This is what the Lord [a]God says:

“Put on the (C)pot, put it on and also pour water into it;
[b](D)Put in it the pieces of meat,
Every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder;
Fill it with choice bones.
Take the (E)choicest of the flock,
And also stack [c]wood under [d]the pot.
Make it boil vigorously.
Also boil its bones in it.”
