2 He said to me, “Son of man, these are the men that devise sin and give wicked counsel in this city,
3 who say, ‘This is not the time to build houses! This city is the cooking pot and we are the meat!’
4 Therefore, prophesy against them, prophesy, son of man.”
5 Then the Ruach Adonai fell upon me and said to me, “Speak! Thus Adonai says: So you are thinking, house of Israel—for I know the thoughts that come into your mind.
6 You have multiplied your slain in this city and you filled the streets with corpses.”
7 Therefore, thus says Adonai Elohim, “Your corpses you have laid in the midst of it, they are the meat and this city is the cooking pot! But I will bring you out of it.
8 You feared the sword, so I will bring the sword against you.” It is a declaration of Adonai Elohim.
