1Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2“Son of man, write the name of the day, this same day. The king of Babylon drew close to Jerusalem this same day.
3Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them, ‘The Lord GOD says, “Put the cauldron on the fire. Put it on, and also pour water into it.
4Gather its pieces into it, even every good piece: the thigh and the shoulder. Fill it with the choice bones.
5Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the cauldron. Make it boil well. Yes, let its bones be boiled within it.”

12She is weary with toil; yet her great rust, rust by fire, doesn’t leave her.
