“ Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say,‘ The vision that he sees is for many days to come, and he prophesies of times that are far off.’

“ Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying,‘ The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?’

and saying,“ Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”

Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them,‘ The Lord Yahweh says,“ Put the cauldron on the fire. Put it on, and also pour water into it.Gather its pieces into it, even every good piece: the thigh and the shoulder. Fill it with the choice bones.Take 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.”“‘ Therefore the Lord Yahweh says:“ Woe to the bloody city, to the cauldron whose rust is in it, and whose rust hasn’t gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece. No lot is fallen on it.“‘“ For her blood is in the middle of her. She set it on the bare rock. She didn’t pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood on the bare rock, that it should not be covered.”“‘ Therefore the Lord Yahweh says:“ Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.Heap on the wood. Make the fire hot. Boil the meat well. Make the broth thick, and let the bones be burned.Then 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.She is weary with toil; yet her great rust, rust by fire, doesn’t leave her.“‘“ 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.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.’”

Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,“ Jeremiah, what do you see?” I said,“ I see a branch of an almond tree.”Then Yahweh said to me,“ You have seen well; for I watch over my word to perform it.”Yahweh’s word came to me the second time, saying,“ What do you see?” I said,“ I see a boiling cauldron; and it is tipping away from the north.”

“‘ Therefore the Lord Yahweh says:“ Your slain whom you have laid in the middle of it, they are the meat, and this is the cauldron; but you will be brought out of the middle of it.You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you,” says the Lord Yahweh.“ I will bring you out of the middle of it, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.You will fall by the sword. I will judge you in the border of Israel. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.This will not be your cauldron, neither will you be the meat in the middle of it. I will judge you in the border of Israel.
