Ezekiel 7:16-22

16‘Those who survive will escape and be on the mountains Like doves of the valleys, All of them mourning, Each for his iniquity.

17Every hand will be feeble, And every knee will be as weak as water.

18They will also be girded with sackcloth; Horror will cover them; Shame will be on every face, Baldness on all their heads.

19‘They will throw their silver into the streets, And their gold will be like refuse; Their silver and their gold will not be able to deliver them In the day of the wrath of the Lord; They will not satisfy their souls, Nor fill their stomachs, Because it became their stumbling block of iniquity.

20‘As for the beauty of his ornaments, He set it in majesty; But they made from it The images of their abominations— Their detestable things; Therefore I have made it Like refuse to them.

21I will give it as plunder Into the hands of strangers, And to the wicked of the earth as spoil; And they shall defile it.

22I will turn My face from them, And they will defile My secret place; For robbers shall enter it and defile it.
