Ezekiel

That it might cause fury to come up to take vengeance; I have set her blood upon the top of a rock, that it should not be covered.

For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the top of a rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust;

Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose scum is therein, and whose scum is not gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall upon it.

Take the choice of the flock, and burn also the bones under it, and make it boil well, and let them seethe the bones of it therein.

Gather the pieces thereof into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.

And utter a parable unto the rebellious house, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Set on a pot, set it on, and also pour water into it:

Son of man, write thee the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem this same day.

Again in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you, and ye shall bear the sins of your idols: and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness.

And the company shall stone them with stones, and dispatch them with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire.

For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will bring up a company upon them, and will give them to be removed and spoiled.

And the righteous men, they shall judge them after the manner of adulteresses, and after the manner of women that shed blood; because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.

Yet they went in unto her, as they go in unto a woman that playeth the harlot: so went they in unto Aholah and unto Aholibah, the lewd women.

Then said I unto her that was old in adulteries, Will they now commit whoredoms with her, and she with them?

And a voice of a multitude being at ease was with her: and with the men of the common sort were brought Sabeans from the wilderness, which put bracelets upon their hands, and beautiful crowns upon their heads.

And satest upon a stately bed, and a table prepared before it, whereupon thou hast set mine incense and mine oil.

And furthermore, that ye have sent for men to come from far, unto whom a messenger was sent; and, lo, they came: for whom thou didst wash thyself, paintedst thy eyes, and deckedst thyself with ornaments,

For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and, lo, thus have they done in the midst of mine house.

Moreover this they have done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.

That they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and with their idols have they committed adultery, and have also caused their sons, whom they bare unto me, to pass for them through the fire, to devour them.

The LORD said moreover unto me; Son of man, wilt thou judge Aholah and Aholibah? yea, declare unto them their abominations;

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast forgotten me, and cast me behind thy back, therefore bear thou also thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.

Thou shalt even drink it and suck it out, and thou shalt break the sherds thereof, and pluck off thine own breasts: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.

Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.

Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou shalt drink of thy sister"s cup deep and large: thou shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it containeth much.

Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister; therefore will I give her cup into thine hand.

I will do these things unto thee, because thou hast gone a whoring after the heathen, and because thou art polluted with their idols.

And they shall deal with thee hatefully, and shall take away all thy labour, and shall leave thee naked and bare: and the nakedness of thy whoredoms shall be discovered, both thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.

For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will deliver thee into the hand of them whom thou hatest, into the hand of them from whom thy mind is alienated:
