Ezekiel 24:7

For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the top of a rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust;

KJV

Sanguis enim ejus in medio ejus est ; super limpidissimam petram effudit illum : non effudit illum super terram, ut possit operiri pulvere.

Vulgate

ὅτι αἵματα αὐτῆς ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς ἐστιν, ἐπὶ λεωπετρίαν τέταχα αὐτό· οὐκ ἐκκέχυκα αὐτὸ ἐπὶ γῆν τοῦ καλύψαι ἐπ’ αὐτὸ γῆν,

LXX

For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the bare rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust.
