6 You have murdered so many people here in the city that the streets are full of corpses.
7 “So this is what I, the Sovereign Lord, am saying to you. This city is a cooking pot all right, but what is the meat? The corpses of those you have killed! You will not be here—I will throw you out of the city!
8 Are you afraid of swords? I will bring soldiers with swords to attack you.
9 I will take you out of the city and hand you over to foreigners. I have sentenced you to death,
10 and you will be killed in battle in your own country. Then everyone will know that I am the Lord.
11 This city will not protect you the way a pot protects the meat in it. I will punish you wherever you may be in the land of Israel.
12 You will know that I am the Lord and that while you were keeping the laws of the neighboring nations, you were breaking my laws and disobeying my commands.”
