Yehezkiel 24:3-5

24:3 Recite a proverb to this rebellious house ¹  and say to them, ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says:

“‘Set on the pot, ²  set it on,

pour water in it too;

24:4 add the pieces of meat to it,

every good piece,

the thigh and the shoulder;

fill it with choice bones.

24:5 Take the choice bone of the flock,

heap up bones under it;

boil rapidly,

and boil its bones in it.
