2 Then the Lord said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who plan evil and give bad advice in this city.
3 They say, ‘It’s almost time to rebuild homes. This city is a cooking pot, and we’re the meat.’
4 So prophesy against them. Prophesy, son of man.”
5 The Lord’s Spirit came to me and told me to say, “This is what the Lord says: You are saying these things, nation of Israel. But I know what’s going through your mind.
6 You have killed many people in this city and have filled its streets with corpses.
7 “So this is what the Almighty Lord says: The corpses that you put in the middle of the city are the meat, and the city is the cooking pot. I will force you out of the city.
8 You are afraid of swords, so I will bring swords to attack you, declares the Almighty Lord.
