‘Therefore thus says the Lord God:

“Woe to (A)the 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 (B)lot has fallen.
For her blood is in her midst;
She set it on top of a rock;
(C)She did not pour it on the ground,
To cover it with dust.
That it may raise up fury and take vengeance,
(D)I have set her blood on top of a rock,
That it may not be covered.”

“‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“‘Woe(A) to the city of bloodshed,(B)
    to the pot now encrusted,
    whose deposit will not go away!
Take the meat out piece by piece
    in whatever order(C) it comes.(D)

“‘For the blood she shed is in her midst:
    She poured it on the bare rock;
she did not pour it on the ground,
    where the dust would cover it.(E)
To stir up wrath and take revenge
    I put her blood on the bare rock,
    so that it would not be covered.
