God’s Word Translation
Ezekiel 8:7-13
7Then he took me to the entrance of the courtyard. As I looked, I saw a hole in the wall.
8He said to me, “Son of man, dig through the wall.” So I dug through the wall, and I saw a door.
9He said to me, “Go in, and see the wicked, disgusting things that the people of Israel are doing here.”
10So I went in and looked. I saw that the walls were covered with drawings of every kind of crawling creature, every kind of disgusting animal, and all the idols in the nation of Israel.
11In front of these drawings stood 70 of Israel’s leaders. Jaazaniah, son of Shaphan, was standing with the leaders. Each of them was holding an incense burner in his hand, and a cloud of incense went up.
12God asked me, “Son of man, do you see what the leaders of the nation of Israel are doing in secret? Each of them is in the room where his god is, and each one of them is thinking, ‘The Lord doesn’t see me. The Lord has abandoned this land.’ ”
13Then he said to me, “You will see even more disgusting things that they are doing.”
