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 GOD:“Woe to the bloody city!I also will make the pile great.
10. Heap on the wood.Make the fire hot.Boil the meat well.Make the broth thick,and let the bones be burnt.
11. Then set it empty on its coals,that it may be hot,and its bronze may burn,and that its filthiness may be molten in it,that its rust may be consumed.
12. She is weary with toil;yet her great rust,rust by fire, doesn’t leave her.
13. “‘“In your filthiness is lewdness. Because I have cleansed you and you weren’t cleansed, you won’t be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath towards you to rest.
14. I, the Lord, have spoken it. It will happen, and I will do it. I won’t go back. I won’t spare. I won’t repent. According to your ways, and according to your doings, they will judge you,” says the Lord GOD.’”
15. Also the Lord’s word came to me, saying,
16. “Son of man, behold, I will take away from you the desire of your eyes with a stroke: yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears run down.
17. Sigh, but not aloud. Make no mourning for the dead. Bind your headdress on you, and put your shoes on your feet. Don’t cover your lips, and don’t eat mourner’s bread.”
