1Yo, in the ninth year, tenth month, and tenth day, God hit me up, saying,

2"Yo, son of man, jot down the name of today: the king of Babylon is straight up flexing on Jerusalem today."

3"Drop a parable for the rebellious crew, and tell them, 'This is what the Lord God says: Get a pot, put it on the fire, and pour some water in there.'"

4"Gather all the good stuff, like the thigh and shoulder; fill it with the choice bones, fam."

5"Snag the best from the flock, burn the bones under it, make it boil hard, and let those bones cook in there."

6"So, the Lord God says: Major L for the bloody city, the pot with all that scum still in it! Bring it out piece by piece; don't let any of it slide."

7"Her blood's all up in the mix; she put it on a rock, didn’t throw it on the ground to cover it up."

8"This is gonna stir up some serious rage; I put her blood on that rock so it wouldn’t be hidden."

9"So the Lord God says: Major L for the bloody city! I'm about to make the fire pile huge."

10"Stack the wood, light it up, burn the flesh, season it right, and let those bones get crispy."

11Just toss it empty on the coals, so the brass gets hot and all the gross stuff melts away, no cap.

12She’s been grinding on lies, and her major ick didn’t go away; her scum's staying in the fire, fr.

13Your filth is just sus: I tried to clean you up, but you’re still a mess; you won’t be cleaned till my fury chills out.

14I, the Lord, said it: it’s gonna happen, and I won’t back down or feel bad; you’ll be judged based on your vibes, says the Lord God.

15Then the Lord hit me up, saying,

16Yo, son of man, I’m taking away something you really want, and you can’t cry or weep, periodt.

17Chill out, don’t cry or mourn for the dead; tie your head up, put on your kicks, and don’t cover your lips or eat their food.

18So I told the people in the morning, and then my wife passed that evening; I did what I was told in the morning.

19The people asked me, "Why are you doing this? What’s the tea?"

20I told them, "The word of the Lord came to me, saying,"

21Yo, Israel fam, God’s like, “Listen up! I’m about to mess with my sanctuary, the ultimate flex of your strength, the stuff you really vibe with, and your kids you left behind are gonna catch the sword, no cap.”

22You gotta do what I did: don’t cover your lips or munch on that bread from others, fr.

23You’ll have your tires on your heads and kicks on your feet; no mourning or crying, just feeling the weight of your wrongs and vibing with each other.

24Ezekiel’s your sign: do what he did, and when it pops off, you’ll know I’m the Lord, periodt.

25Also, fam, when I take away their strength, their glory, what they desire, and their kids, it’s gonna hit different.

26The one who escapes that day will come to you so you can hear what's up with your own ears.

27That day, your mouth will be open to the one who made it out, you’ll speak, and no more being mute; you’ll be a sign for them, and they’ll know I’m the Lord.

1Again in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

2Son of man, write thee the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem this same day.

3And utter a parable unto the rebellious house, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Set on a pot, set it on, and also pour water into it:

4Gather the pieces thereof into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.

5Take the choice of the flock, and burn also the bones under it, and make it boil well, and let them seethe the bones of it therein.

6Wherefore thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose scum is therein, and whose scum is not gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall upon it.

7For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the top of a rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust;

8That it might cause fury to come up to take vengeance; I have set her blood upon the top of a rock, that it should not be covered.

9Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the bloody city! I will even make the pile for fire great.

10Heap on wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burned.

11Then set it empty upon the coals thereof, that the brass of it may be hot, and may burn, and that the filthiness of it may be molten in it, that the scum of it may be consumed.

12She hath wearied herself with lies, and her great scum went not forth out of her: her scum shall be in the fire.

13In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.

14I the Lord have spoken it: it shall come to pass, and I will do it; I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to thy ways, and according to thy doings, shall they judge thee, saith the Lord God.

15Also the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

16Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire of thine eyes with a stroke: yet neither shalt thou mourn nor weep, neither shall thy tears run down.

17Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead, bind the tire of thine head upon thee, and put on thy shoes upon thy feet, and cover not thy lips, and eat not the bread of men.

18So I spake unto the people in the morning: and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.

19And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us, that thou doest so?

20Then I answered them, The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

21Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the excellency of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pitieth; and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left shall fall by the sword.

22And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.

23And your tires shall be upon your heads, and your shoes upon your feet: ye shall not mourn nor weep; but ye shall pine away for your iniquities, and mourn one toward another.

24Thus Ezekiel is unto you a sign: according to all that he hath done shall ye do: and when this cometh, ye shall know that I am the Lord God.

25Also, thou son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their minds, their sons and their daughters,

26That he that escapeth in that day shall come unto thee, to cause thee to hear it with thine ears?

27In that day shall thy mouth be opened to him which is escaped, and thou shalt speak, and be no more dumb: and thou shalt be a sign unto them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
