6 You have killed many people in this city; you have filled its streets with corpses.’
7 Therefore, this is what the sovereign Lord says: ‘The corpses you have dumped in the midst of the city are the meat, and this city is the cooking pot, but I will take you out of it.
8 You fear the sword, so the sword I will bring against you,’ declares the sovereign Lord.
9 ‘But I will take you out of the city. And I will hand you over to foreigners. I will execute judgments on you.
10 You will die by the sword; I will judge you at the border of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
11 This city will not be a cooking pot for you, and you will not be meat within it; I will judge you at the border of Israel.
12 Then you will know that I am the Lord, whose statutes you have not followed and whose regulations you have not carried out. Instead you have behaved according to the regulations of the nations around you!’”
