Ezekiel 8:1-11

1And it came to pass in the sixthH8345 yearH8141, in the sixthH8345 [monthH2320], on the fifth of the monthH2320, that [as] I satH3427 in my houseH1004, and the eldersH2205 of JudahH3063 satH3427 before me, the handH3027 of the LordH136 Jehovah fellH5307 there upon me.

2And I lookedH7200, and behold, a likenessH1823 as the appearanceH4758 of fireH784; from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 and downwardH4295, fireH784; and from his loinsH4975 and upwardH4605, as the appearanceH4758 of brightness, as the look of glowing brass.

3And he stretchedH7971 forthH7971 the formH8403 of a handH3027, and tookH3947 me by a lock of my headH7218; and the SpiritH7307 liftedH5375 me up between the earthH776 and the heavensH8064, and broughtH935 me in the visionsH4759 of 1GodH430 to JerusalemH3389, to the entry of the innerH6442 gateH8179 that looketh toward the northH6828, whereH834 was the seatH4186 of the image of jealousyH7068, which provoketh to jealousyH7068.

4And behold, the gloryH3519 of the 2GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was there, according to the appearanceH4758 that I sawH7200 in the valleyH1237.

5And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, liftH5375 up now thine eyesH5869 toward the northH6828. And I liftedH5375 up mine eyesH5869 toward the northH6828, and behold, northward of the gateH8179 of the altarH4196, this image of jealousyH7068 in the entry.

6And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, seest thou what they do? the greatH1419 abominationsH8441 that the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 commit hereH6311, to cause [me] to goH7725 farH7368 off from my sanctuaryH4720? And yetH5750 againH5750 thou shalt seeH7200 greatH1419 abominationsH8441.

7And he broughtH935 me to the entry of the courtH2691, and I lookedH7200, and behold, a holeH2356 in the wallH7023.

8And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, digH2864 now through the wallH7023; and I digged through the wallH7023, and behold, a doorH6607.

9And he saidH559 unto me, GoH935 in, and behold the wickedH7451 abominationsH8441 that they do hereH6311.

10And I wentH935 in and lookedH7200, and behold, every formH8403 of creepingH7431 thingH7431 and abominable beast, and all the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, portrayed upon the wallH7023 roundH5439 about.

11And there stoodH5975 before them seventyH7657 menH376 of the eldersH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and in the midstH8432 of them stoodH5975 JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, with every manH376 his censerH4730 in his handH3027; and a thick cloudH6051 of incenseH7004 wentH5927 up.
