5. Then the spirit of the Lord fell upon me and told me to say: Thus says the Lord: This is how you talk, house of Israel. I know the things that come into your mind!
6. You have slain many in this city, filled its streets with the slain.
7. Therefore thus says the Lord God: The slain whom you piled up in it, that is the meat, the pot is the city. But you I will bring out of it.
8. You fear the sword—that sword I will bring upon you—oracle of the Lord God.
9. I will bring you out of the city, hand you over to foreigners, and execute judgments against you.
10. By the sword you shall fall. At the borders of Israel I will judge you so that you will know that I am the Lord.
