Ezekiel 8:14-18
14Then He broughtH935 meH853 toH413 the entranceH6607 of the northH6828 gateH8179 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and I sawH2009 womenH802 sittingH3427 thereH8033, weepingH1058 for TammuzH8542.1
15“SonH1121 of manH120,” He saidH559 to meH413, “do you seeH7200 this? YetH5750H7725 you will seeH7200 even greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 than theseH428.”
16So He broughtH935 meH853 toH413 the innerH6442 courtH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and thereH2009 at the entranceH6607 to the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, betweenH996 the porticoH197 andH996 the altarH4196, were about twenty-fiveH6242H2568 menH376 with their backsH268 toH413 the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068 and their facesH6440 toward the eastH6924; and theyH1992 were bowing to the eastH6924 in worshipH7812 of the sunH8121.
17“SonH1121 of manH120,” He saidH559 to meH413, “do you see thisH7200? Is it not enoughH7043 for the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 to commitH6213 the abominationsH8441 they are practicingH6213 hereH6311, thatH3588 they must also fillH4390 the landH776 with violenceH2555 and continuallyH7725 provoke Me to angerH3707? Look, they are evenH2005 puttingH7971 the branchH2156 toH413 their noseH639! 18ThereforeH1571 IH589 will respondH6213 with wrathH2534. I will notH3808 look on themH5869 with pityH2347, norH3808 will I spare themH2550. Although they shoutH7121 loudlyH1419H6963 in My earsH241, I will notH3808 listen to themH8085.”
