Ezekiel 5:4-6

Modern English Version

⁴ Then take some of them again and cast them into the midst of the fire and burn them in the fire. For a fire shall come out into all the house of Israel.

⁵ Thus says the Lord God: This is Jerusalem. I have set it in the midst of the nations, with countries that are all around her. ⁶ But she has rebelled against My judgments more wickedly than the nations, and against My statutes more than the countries that are all around her. For they have refused My judgments and My statutes, and have not walked in them.
