Ezekiel 5:2-4

Expanded Bible

² Burn one-third with fire ·in the middle of [inside] the city when the days of the ·attack on Jerusalem [^Lsiege] are over. Then take one-third and cut it up with the ·knife [sword] all around the city. And scatter one-third to the wind. This is how I will chase them with ·a sword [unsheathed sword]. ³ Also take a few of these hairs and ·tie [bind; tuck] them in the ·folds [edge] of your clothes. ⁴ Take a few more and throw them into the fire and burn them up. From there a fire will spread to all the ·people [^Lhouse] of Israel.
