4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man. |
5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them. |
6 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain. |
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron: but I will bring you forth out of the midst of it. |
8 Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord GOD. |
9 And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you. |
10 Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the LORD. |
11 This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof; but I will judge you in the border of Israel: |
12 And ye shall know that I am the LORD: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you. |
