Contextual Overview
1 And the Word of Jehovah was to me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth of the month, saying, 2 Son of man, write for yourself the name of the day, this very day. The king of Babylon has leaned toward Jerusalem in this very day. 3 And parable a parable to the house of rebellion, and say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah: Set on the pot! Set it on, and also pour water in it. 4 Gather its pieces into it, every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder. Fill it with choice bones, 5 take the choice of the flock and also pile the bones under it. Boiling make it boil. Also let them seethe its bones in it. 6 So the Lord Jehovah says this: Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose rust is in it, and its rust has not gone out of it! Bring it out piece by piece. Let not a lot fall on it. 7 For her blood is in her midst, she set it on a shining rock. She did not pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust. 8 In order to cause fury to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood on a shining rock, that it should not be covered. 9 So the Lord Jehovah says this: Woe to the bloody city! I also shall make great the pile, 10 and heap on the wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and mix in the spice, and let the bones be burned.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
She hath wearied herself with lies,.... With serving idols, which were lying vanities; by trusting to the alliances of neighbouring nations, which deceived her; or by committing sin, in which there was no satisfaction; or it may be understood of wearying of God with their sins, and particularly with her lying promises of repentance and reformation:
and her great scum went not forth out of her; notwithstanding her promises; or notwithstanding the admonitions given, and the chastisements inflicted on her, yet she continued hardened in her sins, impenitent and unreformed:
her scum shall be in the fire; like a pot that boils over, its scum falls into the fire, and is consumed there; and in no other way, but by the fire of divine judgments, or the burning of the city, could the wickedness thereof be consumed. The Targum is,
"and they shall not go out of her that work iniquity; in the fire shall she be burnt, because of the multitude of her sins.''
