Ezekiel 8:8-17

8Then saidH559 he to me, SonH1121 of manH120, digH2864 now in the wallH7023: and when I had dugH2864 in the wallH7023, behold aH259 doorH6607. 9And he saidH559 to me, Go inH935, and beholdH7200 the wickedH7451 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213 here. 10So I went inH935 and sawH7200; and behold every formH8403 of creeping thingsH7431, and abominableH8263 beastsH929, and all the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, portrayedH2707 aroundH5439 upon the wallH7023. 11And there stoodH5975 beforeH6440 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 thickH6282 cloudH6051 of incenseH7004 went upH5927. 12Then saidH559 he to me, SonH1121 of manH120, hast thou seenH7200 what the eldersH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 doH6213 in the darkH2822, every manH376 in the chambersH2315 of his imageryH4906? for they sayH559, The LORDH3068 seethH7200 us not; the LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 the earthH776.

13He saidH559 also to me, TurnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213. 14Then he broughtH935 me to the doorH6607 of the gateH8179 of the LORD’SH3068 houseH1004 which was toward the northH6828; and, behold, there satH3427 womenH802 weepingH1058 for TammuzH8542. 15Then saidH559 he to me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 than these. 16And he broughtH935 me into the innerH6442 courtH2691 of the LORD’SH3068 houseH1004, and, behold, at the doorH6607 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, were about fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 menH376, with their backsH268 toward the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, and their facesH6440 toward the eastH6924; and they worshippedH7812 the sunH8121 toward the eastH6924. 17Then he saidH559 to me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? Is it a light thingH7043 to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 that they commitH6213 the abominationsH8441 which they commitH6213 here? for they have filledH4390 the landH776 with violenceH2555, and have returnedH7725 to provoke me to angerH3707: and, lo, they putH7971 the branchH2156 to their noseH639.1
