3 Propose this parable to the rebellious house and say to them: Thus says the Lord God:Put the pot on, put it on!Pour in some water;
4 Add to it pieces of meat,all choice pieces;With thigh and shoulder,with choice cuts fill it.
5 Choose the pick of the flock,then pile logs beneath it;Bring it to a boil,cook all the pieces in it.
6 Therefore thus says the Lord God:Woe to the city full of blood!A pot containing filth,whose filth cannot be removed!Take out its pieces one by one,for no lot has fallen on their behalf.
7 For her blood is still in her midst;on a bare rock she left it;She did not pour it on the groundto be covered with dirt.
8 To arouse wrath, to exact vengeance,I have left her blood on bare rocknot to be covered.
9 Therefore, thus says the Lord God:Woe to the city full of blood!I will make the pyre great!
