¹² “‘I have worn myself out trying to clean this pot. Even the fire can’t take away its thick tarnish. ¹³ I tried to clean you of your filthy lust, but you wouldn’t clean yourself from your filth. You will never be clean until I unleash my fury on you. ¹⁴ I, Yahweh, have spoken. It will happen, and I will do it. I will not ignore you, pity you, or change my plans. I will punish you because of the way you lived and because of everything you have done,’” declares Adonay Yahweh.
