Ezekiel 11:3-5

Common English Bible

³ They are the ones who say, “The nearest relatives aren’t building houses.^[a] The city is the cooking pot, and we are the meat.” ⁴ Therefore, prophesy against them, human one, prophesy! ⁵ The Lord’s spirit took hold of me, and he said to me: Say, This is what the Lord God proclaims: So you have said, house of Israel! But I know what you really mean.
