1And it came to pass in the sixth8345 year8141, in the sixth8345 month, in the fifth2568 day of the month2320, as I sat3427 in mine house1004, and the elders2205 of Judah3063 sat3427 before6440 me, that the hand3027 of the Lord136 GOD3069 fell5307 there upon me.
2Then I beheld7200, and lo a likeness1823 as the appearance4758 of fire784: from the appearance4758 of his loins4975 even downward4295, fire784; and from his loins4975 even upward4605, as the appearance4758 of brightness2096, as the colour5869 of amber2830.
3And he put forth7971 the form8403 of an hand3027, and took3947 me by a lock6734 of mine head7218; and the spirit7307 lifted me up5375 between the earth776 and the heaven8064, and brought935 me in the visions4759 of God430 to Jerusalem3389, to the door6607 of the inner6442 gate8179 that looketh6437 toward the north6828; where was the seat4186 of the image5566 of jealousy7068, which provoketh to jealousy7069.
4And, behold, the glory3519 of the God430 of Israel3478 was there, according to the vision4758 that I saw7200 in the plain1237.
5Then said559 he unto me, Son1121 of man120, lift up5375 thine eyes5869 now the way1870 toward the north6828. So I lifted up5375 mine eyes5869 the way1870 toward the north6828, and behold northward6828 at the gate8179 of the altar4196 this image5566 of jealousy7068 in the entry872.
6He said559 furthermore unto me, Son1121 of man120, seest7200 thou what they do6213? even the great1419 abominations8441 that the house1004 of Israel3478 committeth6213 here, that I should go far off7368 from my sanctuary4720? but turn7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt see7200 greater1419 abominations8441.
7And he brought935 me to the door6607 of the court2691; and when I looked7200, behold a259 hole2356 in the wall7023.
8Then said559 he unto me, Son1121 of man120, dig2864 now in the wall7023: and when I had digged2864 in the wall7023, behold a259 door6607.
9And he said559 unto me, Go in935, and behold7200 the wicked7451 abominations8441 that they do6213 here.
10So I went in935 and saw7200; and behold every form8403 of creeping things7431, and abominable8263 beasts929, and all the idols1544 of the house1004 of Israel3478, pourtrayed2707 upon the wall7023 round about5439.
11And there stood5975 before6440 them seventy7657 men376 of the ancients2205 of the house1004 of Israel3478, and in the midst8432 of them stood5975 Jaazaniah2970 the son1121 of Shaphan8227, with every man376 his censer4730 in his hand3027; and a thick6282 cloud6051 of incense7004 went up5927.
12Then said559 he unto me, Son1121 of man120, hast thou seen7200 what the ancients2205 of the house1004 of Israel3478 do6213 in the dark2822, every man376 in the chambers2315 of his imagery4906? for they say559, The LORD3068 seeth7200 us not; the LORD3068 hath forsaken5800 the earth776.
13He said559 also unto me, Turn7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt see7200 greater1419 abominations8441 that they do6213.
14Then he brought935 me to the door6607 of the gate8179 of the LORD'S3068 house1004 which was toward the north6828; and, behold, there sat3427 women802 weeping1058 for Tammuz8542.
15Then said559 he unto me, Hast thou seen7200 this, O son1121 of man120? turn7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt see7200 greater1419 abominations8441 than these.
16And he brought935 me into the inner6442 court2691 of the LORD'S3068 house1004, and, behold, at the door6607 of the temple1964 of the LORD3068, between the porch197 and the altar4196, were about five2568 and twenty6242 men376, with their backs268 toward the temple1964 of the LORD3068, and their faces6440 toward the east6924; and they worshipped7812 the sun8121 toward the east6924.
17Then he said559 unto me, Hast thou seen7200 this, O son1121 of man120? Is it a light thing7043 to the house1004 of Judah3063 that they commit6213 the abominations8441 which they commit6213 here? for they have filled4390 the land776 with violence2555, and have returned7725 to provoke me to anger3707: and, lo, they put7971 the branch2156 to their nose639.
18Therefore will I also deal6213 in fury2534: mine eye5869 shall not spare2347, neither will I have pity2550: and though they cry7121 in mine ears241 with a loud1419 voice6963, yet will I not hear8085 them.
