Ezekiel 7:19-27
19They will 1fling their silver into the streets and their gold will become an abhorrent thing; their 2silver and their gold will not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord. They cannot satisfy their 3appetite nor can they fill their stomachs, for their iniquity has become an occasion of stumbling. 20They transformed the beauty of His ornaments into pride, and 4they made the images of their abominations and their detestable things with it; therefore I will make it an abhorrent thing to them. 21I will give it into the hands of the 5foreigners as plunder and to the wicked of the earth as spoil, and they will profane it. 22I will also turn My 6face from them, and they will profane My secret place; then robbers will enter and profane it.
23‘7Make the chain, for the land is full of 89bloody crimes and the city is 10full of violence. 24Therefore, I will bring the worst of the 11nations, and they will possess their houses. I will also make the 12pride of the strong ones cease, and their 13holy places will be profaned. 25When anguish comes, they will seek 14peace, but there will be none. 2615Disaster will come upon disaster and 16rumor will be added to rumor; then they will seek a 17vision from a prophet, but the 18law will be lost from the priest and 19counsel from the elders. 27The king will mourn, the prince will be 20clothed with horror, and the hands of the people of the land will 21tremble. According to their conduct I will deal with them, and by their judgments I will judge them. And they will know that I am the Lord.’”
