Ezekiel 24:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 take the choicest of the flock, and also pile the bones[a] under it; boil it vigorously;[b] indeed,[c] its bones boiled in the midst of it.”’”
6 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Woe to the city of bloodguilt! A pot that has its rust in it; its rust did not go out from it.[d] Bring it out piece by piece;[e] one is as good as another.[f] 7 For her blood was in the midst of her; she put it on a bare rock;[g] she did not pour it on the ground to cover it with dust.[h]
