Ezekiel 24:6
The bloody city - Jerusalem. Whose scum - Her wickedness is still within her. Piece by piece - One piece after another 'till all be consumed. No lot - Lots are for saving some, but here shall be no sparing any.
4 Gather pieces of meat in it,
Every good piece,
The thigh and the shoulder.
Fill it with choice1 cuts;
Every good piece,
The thigh and the shoulder.
Fill it with choice1 cuts;
5 Take the choice of the flock.
Also pile fuel bones under it,
Make it boil well,
And let the cuts simmer in it.”
Also pile fuel bones under it,
Make it boil well,
And let the cuts simmer in it.”
6 ‘Therefore thus says the Lord God:
“Woe to athe 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 blot has fallen.
“Woe to athe 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 blot has fallen.
7 For her blood is in her midst;
She set it on top of a rock;
aShe did not pour it on the ground,
To cover it with dust.
She set it on top of a rock;
aShe did not pour it on the ground,
To cover it with dust.
8 That it may raise up fury and take vengeance,
aI have set her blood on top of a rock,
That it may not be covered.”
aI have set her blood on top of a rock,
That it may not be covered.”
10 Heap on the wood,
Kindle the fire;
Cook the meat well,
Mix in the spices,
And let the1 cuts be burned up.

11 “Then set the pot empty on the coals,
That it may become hot and its bronze may burn,
That aits filthiness may be melted in it,
That its scum may be consumed.
That it may become hot and its bronze may burn,
That aits filthiness may be melted in it,
That its scum may be consumed.
