Ezekiel 24:2-6
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 24

2Son of man, write the name of the day, this very day. The king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day.
3Present a parable to the rebellious house and say to them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: 'Put on the pot, put it on and also pour water into it; 4 Put in it the pieces of meat, Every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder; Fill it with choice bones.
5Take the choicest of the flock, And also stack wood under the pot. Make it boil vigorously. Also boil its bones in it.'
6‘Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: 'Woe to the bloody city, To the pot in which there is rust And whose rust has not gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece, Without making a choice.
King James Version

Chapter 24

2Son of man, write thee the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem this same day. 3And utter a parable unto the rebellious house, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Set on a pot, set it on, and also pour water into it:
4Gather the pieces thereof into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.
5Take the choice of the flock, and burn also the bones under it, and make it boil well, and let them seethe the bones of it therein.
6Wherefore thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose scum is therein, and whose scum is not gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall upon it.

Chapter 24

2"Son of man, write down today’s date, this very day. The king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day.
3Now speak a parable to the rebellious house. Tell them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: Put the pot on the fire— put it on, and then pour water into it! 4Place the pieces of meat in it, every good piece— thigh and shoulder. Fill it with choice bones. 5Take the choicest of the flock and also pile up the fuel under it. Bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.
6"‘Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: Woe to the city of bloodshed, the pot that has corrosion inside it, and its corrosion has not come out of it! Empty it piece by piece; lots should not be cast for its contents.
New Living Translation

Chapter 24

2Son of man, write down today’s date, because on this very day the king of Babylon is beginning his attack against Jerusalem.
3Then give these rebels an illustration with this message from the Sovereign Lord: 'Put a pot on the fire, and pour in some water. 4Fill it with choice pieces of meat — the rump and the shoulder and all the most tender cuts. 5Use only the best sheep from the flock, and heap fuel on the fire beneath the pot. Bring the pot to a boil, and cook the bones along with the meat.
6'Now this is what the Sovereign Lord says: What sorrow awaits Jerusalem, the city of murderers! She is a cooking pot whose corruption can’t be cleaned out. Take the meat out in random order, for no piece is better than another.
English Standard Version

Chapter 24

2"Son of man, write down the name of this day, this very day. The king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day. 3And utter a parable to the rebellious house and say to them, Thus says the Lord God: "Set on the pot, set it on; pour in water also;
4put in it the pieces of meat, all the good pieces, the thigh and the shoulder; fill it with choice bones. 5Take the choicest one of the flock; pile the logs under it; boil it well; seethe also its bones in it. 6"Therefore thus says the Lord God: Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose corrosion is in it, and whose corrosion has not gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece, without making any choice.

Chapter 24

2"Son of man, record this date, this very date, because the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day.
3Tell this rebellious people a parable and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: " ‘Put on the cooking pot; put it on and pour water into it. 4Put into it the pieces of meat, all the choice pieces—the leg and the shoulder. Fill it with the best of these bones; 5take the pick of the flock. Pile wood beneath it for the bones; bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.
6" ‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: " ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed, to the pot now encrusted, whose deposit will not go away! Take the meat out piece by piece in whatever order it comes.

Fill it with choice cuts; 5Take the choice of the flock. Also pile fuel bones under it, Make it boil well, And let the cuts simmer in it.”
6‘Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Woe to the bloody city, To the pot whose scum is in it, And whose scum is not gone from it! Bring it out piece by piece, On which no lot has fallen.
