Ezekiel 24:6-8

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.

[24:6]  ¹ tn Or “rust.”

[24:6]  ² tn Heb “has not gone out.”

[24:6]  ³ tn Here “lot” may refer to the decision made by casting lots; it is not chosen at all.
