5 Then athe Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said to me, “Speak! ‘Thus says the Lord: “Thus you have said, O house of Israel; for bI know the things that come into your mind.
6 aYou have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.”
7 Therefore thus says the Lord God: a“Your slain whom you have laid in its midst, they are the meat, and this city is the caldron; bbut I shall bring you out of the midst of it.
8 You have afeared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you,” says the Lord God.
9 “And I will bring you out of its midst, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and aexecute judgments on you.
10 aYou shall fall by the sword. I will judge you at bthe border of Israel. cThen you shall know that I am the Lord.
11 aThis city shall not be your caldron, nor shall you be the meat in its midst. I will judge you at the border of Israel.
12 And you shall know that I am the Lord; for you have not walked in My statutes nor executed My judgments, but ahave done according to the customs of the Gentiles which are all around you.” ’ ”
