Book 26 Ezekiel Chapter 008

 

008:001And 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
elders of Judah sat before me, that the hand of the Lord GOD
fell there upon me.

 

008:002Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of 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.

 

008:003And he put forth the form of an hand, and took me by a lock of
mine head; and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and
the heaven, and brought me in the 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.

 

008:004And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there,
according to the vision that I saw in the plain.

 

008:005Then 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.

 

008:006He 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.

 

008:007And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked,
behold a hole in the wall.

 

008:008Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and
when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.

 

008:009And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations
that they do here.

 

008:010So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping
things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house
of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.

 

008:011And there stood before them seventy men of the 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.

 

008:012Then 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.

 

008:013He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see
greater abominations that they do.

 

008:014Then 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 Tammuz.

 

008:015Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn
thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than
these.

 

008:016And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD's house,
and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between
the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with
their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces
toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.

 

008:017Then 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.

 

008:018Therefore 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.
