Ezekiel
Ezekiel 22:20–21
20Just as one gathers silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin into the furnace to melt with a fiery blast, so I will gather you in My anger and wrath, leave you there, and melt you.
21Yes, I will gather you together and blow on you with the fire of My wrath, and you will be melted within the city.
