New King James Version

Ezekiel 24:6-10 New King James Version (NKJV)

6. ‘Therefore thus says the Lord God:“Woe to the bloody city,To the pot whose scum is in it,And whose scum is not gone from it!Bring it out piece by piece,On which no lot has fallen.

7. For her blood is in her midst;She set it on top of a rock;She did not pour it on the ground,To cover it with dust.

8. That it may raise up fury and take vengeance,I have set her blood on top of a rock,That it may not be covered.”

9. ‘Therefore thus says the Lord God:“Woe to the bloody city!I too will make the pyre great.

10. Heap on the wood,Kindle the fire;Cook the meat well,Mix in the spices,And let the cuts be burned up.
