Ezekiel 8:3-16

3 He ^adput out the form of a hand and took me by a lock of my head, and the Spirit lifted me up ^aebetween earth and heaven and ^afbrought me in ^agvisions of God to Jerusalem, ^ahto the entrance of the gateway of the inner court that faces north, ^aiwhere was the seat of the ^ajimage of jealousy, ^akwhich provokes to jealousy. 4 And behold, ^althe glory of the God of Israel was there, like the vision that I saw ^amin the valley.

5 Then he said to me, ^an“Son of man, lift up your eyes now toward the north.” So I lifted up my eyes toward the north, and behold, north of ^aothe altar gate, in the entrance, was this ^apimage of jealousy. 6 And he said to me, “Son of man, ^aqdo you see what they are doing, ^arthe great abominations that the house of Israel are committing here, ^asto drive me far from my sanctuary? But you will see still greater abominations.”

7 And he brought me to the entrance of the court, and when I looked, behold, there was a hole in the wall. 8 Then he said to me, “Son of man, ^atdig in the wall.” So I dug in the wall, and behold, there was an entrance. 9 And he said to me, “Go in, and see ^authe vile abominations that they are committing here.” 10 So I went in and saw. And there, ^avengraved on the wall all around, was ^awevery form of ^axcreeping things and loathsome beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel. 11 And before them stood ^ayseventy men of ^azthe elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah the son of ^baShaphan standing among them. Each had his censer in his hand, and ^bbthe smoke 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 are doing ^bcin the dark, each ^bdin his room of pictures? For they say, ^be‘The Lord does not see us, the Lord has forsaken the land.’” 13 He said also to me, ^bf“You will see still greater abominations that they commit.”

14 Then he brought me to ^bgthe entrance of the north gate of the house of the Lord, and behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz. 15 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, O ^bhson of man? ^biYou will see still greater abominations than these.”

16 And he brought me into ^bjthe inner court of the house of the Lord.
