Ezekiel 5:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ From these, however, take some and cast them into the fire and burn them completely. A fire will spread from there against the entire house of Israel.

⁵ Thus says the Lord God: This is Jerusalem, which I have established in the midst of the nations and surrounded with foreign countries. ⁶ But she has rebelled against my ordinances and my statutes more wickedly than all the nations and the countries around her, rejecting my ordinances and refusing to obey my laws.
