8In order to stir up wrath
and take vengeance,I have placed her blood on the bare rock,
so that it would not be covered.’
9Yes, this is what the Lord GOD says:
‘Woe to the city of bloodshed!I, too, will pile the kindling high.
10Pile on the logs and kindle the fire;
cook the meat welland mix in the spices;
let the bones be burned.
11Set the empty pot on its coals
until it becomes hot and its copper glows.Then its impurity will melt within;
its rust will be consumed.
12It has frustrated every effort;
its thick rust has not been removed,even by the fire.
13Because of the indecency of your uncleanness
I tried to cleanse you,but you would not be purified
from your filthiness.
You will not be pure again
until My wrath against you has subsided.
— Ezekiel 24:8-13
