4Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, son of man.
5The Spirit of Yahweh fell on me, and he said to me, Speak, Thus says Yahweh: Thus have you said, house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.
6You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled the streets of it with the slain.
7Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Your slain whom you have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this [city] is the caldron; but you shall be brought forth out of the midst of it.
8You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you, says the Lord Yahweh.
9I will bring you forth out of the midst of it, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10You shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.
