18 Son of man, The house of Israel hath become to me, dross, - They all are copper and tin and iron and lead in the midst of a furnace, The dross of silver, have they become. 19 Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Because ye all are become dross, Therefore, behold me! gathering you into the midst of Jerusalem: 20 As they gather silver and copper and iron and lead and tin into the midst of a furnace, to blow upon it the fire to melt it, So will I gather in mine anger and in mine indignation, and will let b. and will melt you; 21 Yea I will gather you together, and blow upon you, with the fire of my wrath, - And ye shall be melted in the midst thereof: 22 As silver is melted in he midst of a furnace, Sol shall ye be melted in the midst thereof, - Then shall ye know that lit Yahweh have poured out mine indignation upon you.
