3. Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh, Set on the cauldron, set it on, and also pour water into it:
4. gather its pieces into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.
5. Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the cauldron; make it boil well; yes, let its bones be boiled within it.
6. Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Woe to the bloody city, to the cauldron whose rust is therein, and whose rust is not gone out of it! take out of it piece after piece; No lot is fallen on it.
7. For her blood is in the middle of her; she set it on the bare rock; she didn’t pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.
8. That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood on the bare rock, that it should not be covered.
9. Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.
