Ezekiel 5:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² A third part thou shalt burn with fire in the midst of the city, according to the fulfilling of the days of the siege: and thou shalt take a third part, and cut it in pieces with the knife all round about: and the other third part thou shalt scatter in the wind, and I will draw out the sword after them.

³ And thou shalt take thereof a small number: and shalt bind them in the skirt of thy cloak.

⁴ And thou shalt take of them again, and shalt cast them in the midst of the fire, and shalt burn them with fire: and out of it shall come forth a fire into all the house of Israel.
