EZE-8:1 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
elders of Judah
sat before me, that the hand of the Lord GOD fell there upon me.
EZE-8:2 Then 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.
EZE-8:3 And 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.
EZE-8:4 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel [was] there,
according to
the vision that I saw in the plain.
EZE-8:5 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.
EZE-8:6 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.
EZE-8:7 And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I
looked, behold
a hole in the wall.
EZE-8:8 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall:
and when I had
digged in the wall, behold a door.
EZE-8:9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked
abominations that
they do here.
EZE-8:10 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.
EZE-8:11 And 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.
EZE-8:12 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.
EZE-8:13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, [and] thou
shalt see
greater abominations that they do.
EZE-8:14 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
Tammuz.
EZE-8:15 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.
EZE-8:16 And 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
