Ezekiel 24:4-11 New English Translation (NET)

4. add the pieces of meat to it, every good piece,the thigh and the shoulder;fill it with choice bones.

5. Take the choice bone of the flock,heap up bones under it;boil rapidly,and boil its bones in it.

6. “‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says:Woe to the city of bloodshed,the pot whose rot is in it,whose rot has not been removed from it!Empty it piece by piece.No lot has fallen on it.

7. For her blood was in it;she poured it on an exposed rock;she did not pour it on the ground to cover it up with dust.

8. To arouse anger, to take vengeance,I have placed her blood on an exposed rock so that it cannot be covered up.

9. “‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: Woe to the city of bloodshed!I will also make the pile high.

10. Pile up the bones, kindle the fire;cook the meat well, mix in the spices,let the bones be charred.

11. Set the empty pot on the coals,until it becomes hot and its copper glows,until its uncleanness melts within it and its rot is consumed.
