Ezekiel 5:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

³ Then you shall take from these a small number, and bind them in the skirts of your robe. ⁴ From these, again, you shall take some, throw them into the fire, and burn them up; from there a fire will come out against all the house of Israel.

⁵ Thus says the Lord God: This is Jerusalem; I have set her in the centre of the nations, with countries all around her.
