Ezekiel 24:12 (WEB)
Context Reading
10Heap on the wood.Make the fire hot.Boil the meat well.Make the broth thick,and let the bones be burned. 11Then set it empty on its coals,that it may be hot,and its bronze may burn,and that its filthiness may be molten in it,that its rust may be consumed. 12She is weary with toil;yet her great rust,rust by fire, doesn’t leave her. 13“‘“In your filthiness is lewdness. Because I have cleansed you and you weren’t cleansed, you won’t be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath toward you to rest. 14“‘“I, Yahweh, have spoken it. It will happen, and I will do it. I won’t go back. I won’t spare. I won’t repent. According to your ways and according to your doings, they will judge you,” says the Lord Yahweh.’”
