Ezekiel 43:1-8

1Then the man took me to the east gate.

2I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice was like the sound of rushing water, and the earth was shining because of his glory.

3This vision was like the one I saw when he came  to destroy Jerusalem and like the one I saw by the Chebar River. I immediately bowed down.

4The Lord’s glory came into the temple through the east gate.

5The Spirit lifted me and brought me into the inner courtyard. I saw the Lord’s glory fill the temple.

6I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple while the man was standing beside me.

7The voice said to me, “Son of man, this is the place where my throne is and the place where my feet rest. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever. Then the people of Israel and their kings will no longer dishonor my holy name by acting like prostitutes, nor will they dishonor it with the dead bodies of their kings.

8They put their doorway by my doorway and their doorposts by my doorposts. Only a wall separated me from them. They dishonored my holy name because of the disgusting things that they have done. So I destroyed them in my anger.
