The boiling pot

13And the word of Yahweh came to me a second time, saying, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a boiling pot, and its face is from the north.”

14And Yahweh said to me, “From the north the disaster will break forth against all the inhabitants of the land.”

15For behold, I am calling all the clans of the kingdoms of the north, declares Yahweh, and they will come, and each will set his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, against all her walls all around, and against all the cities of Judah.

16And I will pronounce my judgments against them for all their evil, because they have forsaken me, burned incense to other gods, and bowed down to the works of their own hands.
