ISV(i)
9 “Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘How terrible it is for that blood-filled city— I’m also going to add to my pile of kindling.
10 Pile up the wood! Make the fire burn hot. Boil the meat! Mix the seasonings. Burn those bones to a crisp!
11 Make the pot stand empty on the coals until its bronze glows red, its rust can be scoured off, and its dross completely removed.
12 The pot wearies me, but its thick rust won’t come off, even with fire.
13 There is wickedness in your obscene conduct. Even though I’ve cleansed you, your uncleanness cannot be washed away. You cannot be cleansed again until my rage against you has subsided.’
14 “‘I, the LORD have spoken. It will happen, because I’m going to do it. I won’t hold back, have compassion, or change my mind. They’ll judge you according to your ways and deeds,’ declares the Lord GOD.”
