A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]
your slain--those on whom you have brought ruin by your wicked counsels. Bloody crimes within the city brought on it a bloody foe from without (Eze 7:23-24). They had made it a caldron in which to boil the flesh of God's people (Mic 3:1-3), and eat it by unrighteous oppression; therefore God will make it a caldron in a different sense, one not wherein they may be safe in their guilt, but "out of the midst of" which they shall be "brought forth" (Jer 34:4-5).

4 Yet hear [08085] the word [01697] of the LORD [03068], O Zedekiah [06667] king [04428] of Judah [03063]; Thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068] of thee, Thou shalt not die [04191] by the sword [02719]:
5 But thou shalt die [04191] in peace [07965]: and with the burnings [04955] of thy fathers [01], the former [07223] kings [04428] which were before [06440] thee, so shall they burn [08313] odours for thee; and they will lament [05594] thee, saying, Ah [01945] lord [0113]! for I have pronounced [01696] the word [01697], saith [05002] the LORD [03068].
1 And I said [0559], Hear [08085], I pray you, O heads [07218] of Jacob [03290], and ye princes [07101] of the house [01004] of Israel [03478]; Is it not for you to know [03045] judgment [04941]?
2 Who hate [08130] the good [02896], and love [0157] the evil [07451]; who pluck off [01497] their skin [05785] from off them, and their flesh [07607] from off their bones [06106];
3 Who also eat [0398] the flesh [07607] of my people [05971], and flay [06584] their skin [05785] from off them; and they break [06476] their bones [06106], and chop them in pieces [06566], as for the pot [05518], and as flesh [01320] within [08432] the caldron [07037].
23 Make [06213] a chain [07569]: for the land [0776] is full [04390] of bloody [01818] crimes [04941], and the city [05892] is full [04390] of violence [02555].
24 Wherefore I will bring [0935] the worst [07451] of the heathen [01471], and they shall possess [03423] their houses [01004]: I will also make the pomp [01347] of the strong [05794] to cease [07673]; and their holy places [06942] shall be defiled [02490] [05157].
