that the house of Israel are committing here, to drive me far from my
sanctuary? But you will see still greater abominations.” 7And he brought me to the entrance of the

that they commit here, that they should fill the land with violence and provoke
me still further to anger? Behold, they put the branch to their nose. 18Therefore
I will act in wrath. My eye will not spare, nor will I have pity. And though

man in the rooms of his image? For they are saying, Jehovah does not see
us, Jehovah has forsaken the earth.

back, you shall yet see greater abominations which they are doing.

of the gate of the house of Jehovah on the north. And, behold, women were
sitting there weeping for Tammuz.

seen, son of man? Yet you turn back and you shall see greater
abominations than these.

court of the house of Jehovah. And, behold, at the opening of the temple of
Jehovah, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men
with their backs to the temple of Jehovah, and their faces eastward. And they
bowed themselves eastward to the sun.

have you seen? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah from doing the
disgusting things which they do here? For they have filled the land with violence
and have returned to provoke Me to anger. And, behold, they are putting the
branch to their nose!
18 And I also will deal with fury.
My eye shall not spare, and I will not have pity. And though they cry in My
ears with a loud voice, even I will not hear them.

they are doing, the great abominations which the house of Israel are committing
here, so that I would be far from My sanctuary? But yet you will see still
greater abominations.” 7Then He brought me to the entrance of the court,
and when I looked, behold, a hole in the wall. 8He said to me, “Son of man, now dig
through the wall.” So I dug through the wall, and behold, an entrance. 9And He
said to me, “Go in and see the wicked abominations that they are committing
here.” 10So I entered and looked, and behold, every form of creeping things and
beasts and detestable things, with all the idols of the house of Israel, were
carved on the wall all around. 11Standing in front of them were seventy
elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan standing among

gate of the Lord’s house which was toward the north; and behold, women were
sitting there weeping for Tammuz. 15He said to me, “Do you see this, son of
man? Yet you will see still greater abominations than these.” 16Then He

twenty-five men with their backs to the temple of the Lord and their faces
toward the east; and they were prostrating themselves eastward toward the sun. 17He said
to me, “Do you see this, son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of
Judah to commit the abominations which they have committed here, that they have
filled the land with violence and provoked Me repeatedly? For behold, they are
putting the twig to their nose. 18“Therefore, I indeed will deal in wrath.
My eye will have no pity nor will I spare; and though they cry in My ears with
a loud voice, yet I will not listen to them.”
Ezekiel 8:5-18 (WEB) Back
5 Then
he said to me, “Son of man, lift up your eyes now the way toward the north.”
6 He said to me, “Son of man, do you see
what they do? Even the great abominations that the house of Israel commit here,
that I should go far off from my sanctuary? But you will again see yet other
great abominations.”
7 He brought me to the door of the
court; and when I looked, behold, a hole in the wall.
8
Then he said to me, “Son of man, dig now in the wall.”
9 He said to me, “Go in, and see the
wicked abominations that they do here.”
10 So I went in and looked, and saw every
form of creeping things, abominable animals, and all the idols of the house of
Israel, portrayed around on the wall.
11 Seventy men of the elders of the house of
Israel stood before them. In the middle of them Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan
stood, every man with his censer in his hand; and the smell of the cloud of
incense went up.
12 Then he said to me, “Son of man, have
you seen what the elders of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in
his rooms of imagery? For they say, ‘Yahweh doesn’t see us. Yahweh has forsaken
the land.’ ”
13 He said also to me, “You will again see more
of the great abominations which they do.”
14 Then he brought me to the door of the
gate of Yahweh’s house which was toward the north; and I saw the women sit
there weeping for Tammuz.
15 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, son
of man? You will again see yet greater abominations than these.”
16 He brought me into the inner court of
Yahweh’s house; and I saw at the door of Yahweh’s temple, between the porch and
the altar, there were about twenty-five men, with their backs toward Yahweh’s
temple, and their faces toward the east. They were worshiping the sun toward
the east.
17 Then he said to me, “Have you seen
this, 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 turned again to provoke me to anger. Behold, they put the
branch to their nose.
18 Therefore I will also deal in wrath. My eye
won’t spare, neither will I have pity. Though they cry in my ears with a loud
voice, yet I will not hear them.”
