Ezekiel 11:9
7 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: The slain you have laid within this city are the meat, and the city is the pot; but I will remove you from it.
8 You fear the sword, so I will bring the sword against you, declares the Lord GOD.
I will bring you out of the city and deliver you into the hands of foreigners, and I will execute judgments against you.
10 You will fall by the sword, and I will judge you even to the borders of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
11 The city will not be a pot for you, nor will you be the meat within it. I will judge you even to the borders of Israel.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
