And utter an allegory to the rebellious house and say to them, Thus says the Lord God:

Set on the pot, set it on,
    pour in water also;
put in it the pieces,
    all the good pieces, the thigh and the shoulder;
    fill it with choice bones.
Take the choicest one of the flock,
    pile the logs[a] under it;
boil its pieces,[b]
    seethe[c] also its bones in it.
