Ezekiel 24:12
She - Jerusalem. With lies - Her allies, their promises, their forces, and their idols, all prove a lie to the house of Judah. Her scum - Her unrepented sins shall be punished in the fire that burns their city.
10 Heap on the wood,
Kindle the fire;
Cook the meat well,
Mix in the spices,
And let the1 cuts be burned up.
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.
12 She has1 grown weary with lies,
And her great scum has not gone from her.
Let her scum be in the fire!
And her great scum has not gone from her.
Let her scum be in the fire!
13 In your afilthiness is lewdness.
Because I have cleansed you, and you were not cleansed,
You will bnot be cleansed of your filthiness anymore,
cTill I have caused My fury to rest upon you.
Because I have cleansed you, and you were not cleansed,
You will bnot be cleansed of your filthiness anymore,
cTill I have caused My fury to rest upon you.
14 aI, the Lord, have spoken it;
bIt shall come to pass, and I will do it;
I will not hold back,
cNor will I spare,
Nor will I relent;
According to your ways
And according to your deeds
1They will judge you,”
Says the Lord God.’ ”
