13 The word of the Lord came to me again: “What do you see?”(A)

“I see a pot that is boiling,” I answered. “It is tilting toward us from the north.”

14 The Lord said to me, “From the north(B) disaster will be poured out on all who live in the land. 15 I am about to summon all the peoples of the northern kingdoms,” declares the Lord.

“Their kings will come and set up their thrones
    in the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem;
they will come against all her surrounding walls
    and against all the towns of Judah.(C)
16 I will pronounce my judgments(D) on my people
    because of their wickedness(E) in forsaking me,(F)
in burning incense to other gods(G)
    and in worshiping(H) what their hands have made.(I)
