Ezekiel 24:5-7
EasyEnglish Bible
5 Use meat and bones from the best sheep.
Put more wood on the fire under the pot.
Cause the water in the pot to boil well.
Cook the bones and the meat.
6 This is what the Almighty Lord says:
Terrible trouble will come to the city that is full of murderers!
It is like a pot that has become dirty.
Nobody has tried to clean it.
Take out each piece of meat, one by one.
No piece is special.
7 You can see the blood of people that men killed in the city.
It lies on the rocks where everyone can see it.
Those murderers did not leave the blood on the ground,
where dirt would hide it.

Pile wood beneath it for the bones;

and cook the bones in it.(B)
6 “‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Woe(C) to the city of bloodshed,(D)
to the pot now encrusted,
whose deposit will not go away!
Take the meat out piece by piece
in whatever order(E) it comes.(F)
7 “‘For the blood she shed is in her midst:
She poured it on the bare rock;
she did not pour it on the ground,
where the dust would cover it.(G)
