24:6 “‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says:
Woe to the city of bloodshed,
the pot whose rot 1 is in it,
whose rot has not been removed 2 from it!
Empty it piece by piece.
No lot has fallen on it. 3
24:7 For her blood was in it;
she poured it on an exposed rock;
she did not pour it on the ground to cover it up with dust.
24:8 To arouse anger, to take vengeance,
I have placed her blood on an exposed rock so that it cannot be covered up.
1 tn Or “rust.”
2 tn Heb “has not gone out.”
3 tn Here “lot” may refer to the decision made by casting lots; it is not chosen at all.
