“ Son of man, set forth an allegory and tell it to the Israelites as a parable. (niv)

Then I said,“ Sovereign Lord, they are saying of me,‘ Isn’t he just telling parables?’” (niv)

They say,‘ Haven’t our houses been recently rebuilt? This city is a pot, and we are the meat in it.’ (niv)

And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them or their words. Do not be afraid, though briers and thorns are all around you and you live among scorpions. Do not be afraid of what they say or be terrified by them, though they are a rebellious people. (niv)

Hear me, you heavens! Listen, earth! For the Lord has spoken:“ I reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me. (niv)

He said:“ Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me; they and their ancestors have been in revolt against me to this very day. (niv)

“‘ For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:“‘ Woe to the city of bloodshed, to the pot now encrusted, whose deposit will not go away! Take the meat out piece by piece in whatever order it comes. (niv)

I will open my mouth with a parable; I will utter hidden things, things from of old— (niv)

and say:“‘ What a lioness was your mother among the lions! She lay down among them and reared her cubs.She brought up one of her cubs, and he became a strong lion. He learned to tear the prey and he became a man- eater.The nations heard about him, and he was trapped in their pit. They led him with hooks to the land of Egypt.“‘ When she saw her hope unfulfilled, her expectation gone, she took another of her cubs and made him a strong lion.He prowled among the lions, for he was now a strong lion. He learned to tear the prey and he became a man- eater.He broke down their strongholds and devastated their towns. The land and all who were in it were terrified by his roaring.Then the nations came against him, those from regions round about. They spread their net for him, and he was trapped in their pit.With hooks they pulled him into a cage and brought him to the king of Babylon. They put him in prison, so his roar was heard no longer on the mountains of Israel.“‘ Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard planted by the water; it was fruitful and full of branches because of abundant water.Its branches were strong, fit for a ruler’s scepter. It towered high above the thick foliage, conspicuous for its height and for its many branches.But it was uprooted in fury and thrown to the ground. The east wind made it shrivel, it was stripped of its fruit; its strong branches withered and fire consumed them.Now it is planted in the desert, in a dry and thirsty land.Fire spread from one of its main branches and consumed its fruit. No strong branch is left on it fit for a ruler’s scepter.’“ This is a lament and is to be used as a lament.” (niv)

Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest him because they knew he had spoken the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd; so they left him and went away. (niv)

“ Son of man, you are living among a rebellious people. They have eyes to see but do not see and ears to hear but do not hear, for they are a rebellious people. (niv)
