- And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in the sight of the heathen, and thou shalt know that I am the LORD.
- And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
- Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross: all they are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are even the dross of silver.
- Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye are all become dross, behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
- As they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt it; so will I gather you in mine anger and in my fury, and I will leave you there, and melt you.

- When you have been defiled in the eyes of the nations, you will know that I am the LORD.' "
- Then the word of the LORD came to me:
- "Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me; all of them are the copper, tin, iron and lead left inside a furnace. They are but the dross of silver.
- Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: 'Because you have all become dross, I will gather you into Jerusalem.
- As men gather silver, copper, iron, lead and tin into a furnace to melt it with a fiery blast, so will I gather you in my anger and my wrath and put you inside the city and melt you.
