Ezekiel 8
And
it
came
to
pass
in
the
sixth
year,
in
the
sixth
month,
in
the
fifth
day
of
the
month,
as
I
sat
in
mine
house,
and
the
a
elders
of
Judah
sat
before
me,
that
the
b
hand
of
the
Lord
God
fell
there
upon
me.
2 Then
I
beheld,
and
lo
a
likeness
as
the
appearance
of
a
fire:
from
the
appearance
of
his
loins
even
downward,
fire;
and
from
his
loins
even
upward,
as
the
appearance
of
brightness,
as
the
colour
of
amber.
3 And
he
put
forth
the
form
of
an
hand,
and
took
me
by
a
lock
of
mine
head;
and
the
a
spirit
lifted
me
up
between
the
earth
and
the
b
heaven,
and
brought
me
in
the
c
visions
of
God
to
Jerusalem,
to
the
door
of
the
inner
gate
that
looketh
toward
the
north;
where
was
the
seat
of
the
image
of
jealousy,
which
provoketh
to
jealousy.
4 And,
behold,
a
the
glory
of
the
God
of
Israel
was
there,
according
to
the
vision
that
I
saw
in
the
b
plain.
5 Then
said
he
unto
me,
Son
of
man,
lift
up
thine
eyes
now
the
way
toward
the
north.
So
I
lifted
up
mine
eyes
the
way
toward
the
north,
and
behold
northward
at
the
gate
of
the
altar
this
image
of
jealousy
in
the
entry.
6 He
said
furthermore
unto
me,
Son
of
man,
seest
thou
what
they
do?
even
the
great
abominations
that
the
house
of
Israel
committeth
here,
that
I
should
go
far
off
from
my
sanctuary?
but
turn
thee
yet
again,
and
thou
shalt
see
greater
abominations.
7 And
he
brought
me
to
the
door
of
the
court;
and
when
I
looked,
behold
a
hole
in
the
wall.
8 Then
said
he
unto
me,
Son
of
man,
dig
now
in
the
wall:
and
when
I
had
digged
in
the
wall,
behold
a
door.
9 And
he
said
unto
me,
Go
in,
and
behold
the
wicked
a
abominations
that
they
do
here.
10 So
I
went
in
and
saw;
and
behold
every
form
of
creeping
things,
and
abominable
beasts,
and
all
the
idols
of
the
house
of
Israel,
portrayed
upon
the
wall
round
about.
11 And
there
stood
before
them
a
seventy
men
of
the
b
ancients
of
the
house
of
Israel,
and
in
the
midst
of
them
stood
Jaazaniah
the
son
of
Shaphan,
with
every
man
his
censer
in
his
hand;
and
a
thick
cloud
of
incense
went
up.
12 Then
said
he
unto
me,
Son
of
man,
hast
thou
seen
what
the
ancients
of
the
house
of
Israel
do
in
the
dark,
every
man
in
the
chambers
of
his
imagery?
for
they
say,
The
Lord
seeth
us
not;
the
Lord
hath
forsaken
the
earth.
13 He
said
also
unto
me,
Turn
thee
yet
again,
and
thou
shalt
see
greater
abominations
that
they
do.
14 Then
he
brought
me
to
the
door
of
the
gate
of
the
Lord's
house
which
was
toward
the
north;
and,
behold,
there
sat
women
weeping
for
a
Tammuz.
15 Then
said
he
unto
me,
Hast
thou
seen
this,
O
son
of
man?
turn
thee
yet
again,
and
thou
shalt
see
greater
abominations
than
these.
16 And
he
brought
me
into
the
inner
a
court
of
the
Lord's
house,
and,
behold,
at
the
door
of
the
temple
of
the
Lord,
between
the
b
porch
and
the
altar,
were
about
five
and
twenty
men,
with
their
c
backs
toward
the
temple
of
the
Lord,
and
their
faces
toward
the
east;
and
they
worshipped
d
the
sun
toward
the
east.
17 Then
he
said
unto
me,
Hast
thou
seen
this,
O
son
of
man?
Is
it
a
light
thing
to
the
house
of
Judah
that
they
commit
the
abominations
which
they
commit
here?
for
they
have
filled
the
land
with
violence,
and
have
returned
to
provoke
me
to
anger:
and,
lo,
they
put
the
branch
to
their
nose.
18 Therefore
will
I
also
deal
in
fury:
mine
eye
shall
not
spare,
neither
will
I
have
pity:
and
though
they
cry
in
mine
ears
with
a
loud
voice,
yet
will
I
not
hear
them.
