ylt @Ezekiel:8:1 @And it cometh to pass , in the sixth year , in the sixth [month ], in the fifth of the month , I am sitting in my house , and elders of Judah are sitting before me , and fall on me there doth a hand of the Lord Jehovah , ylt @Ezekiel:8:2 @and I look , and lo , a likeness as the appearance of fire , from the appearance of His loins and downward -- fire , and from His loins and upward , as the appearance of brightness , as the colour of copper . ylt @Ezekiel:8:3 @And He putteth forth a form of a hand , and taketh me by a lock of my head , and lift me up doth a spirit between the earth and the heavens , and it bringeth me in to Jerusalem in visions of God , unto the opening of the inner gate that is facing the north , where [is ] the seat of the figure of jealousy that is making jealous , ylt @Ezekiel:8:4 @and lo , there the honour of the God of Israel , as the appearance that I saw in the valley . ylt @Ezekiel:8:5 @And He saith unto me , 'Son of man , lift up , I pray thee , thine eyes the way of the north .' And I lift up mine eyes the way of the north , and lo , on the north of the gate of the altar this figure of jealousy , at the entrance . ylt @Ezekiel:8:6 @And He saith unto me , 'Son of man , art thou seeing what they are doing ? the great abominations that the house of Israel are doing here , to keep far off from My sanctuary ; and again thou dost turn , thou dost see great abominations .' ylt @Ezekiel:8:7 @And He bringeth me in unto an opening of the court , and I look , and lo , a hole in the wall ; ylt @Ezekiel:8:8 @and He saith unto me , 'Son of man , dig , I pray thee , through the wall ;' and I dig through the wall , and lo , an opening . ylt @Ezekiel:8:9 @And He saith to me , 'Go in , and see the evil abominations that they are doing here .' ylt @Ezekiel:8:10 @And I go in , and look , and lo , every form of creeping thing , and detestable beast -- and all the Idols of the house of Israel -- graved on the wall , all round about , ylt @Ezekiel:8:11 @and seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel -- and Jaazaniah son of Shaphan standing in their midst -- are standing before them , and each his censer in his hand , and the abundance of the cloud of perfume is going up . ylt @Ezekiel:8:12 @And He saith unto me , 'Hast thou seen , son of man , that which elders of the house of Israel are doing in darkness , each in the inner chambers of his imagery , for they are saying , Jehovah is not seeing us , Jehovah hath forsaken the land ?' ylt @Ezekiel:8:13 @And He saith unto me , 'Again thou dost turn , thou dost see great abominations that they are doing .' ylt @Ezekiel:8:14 @And He bringeth me in unto the opening of the gate of the house of Jehovah that [is ] at the north , and lo , there the women are sitting weeping for Tammuz . ylt @Ezekiel:8:15 @And He saith unto me , 'Hast thou seen , son of man ? again thou dost turn , thou dost see greater abominations than these .' ylt @Ezekiel:8:16 @And He bringeth me in unto the inner court of the house of Jehovah , and lo , at the opening of the temple of Jehovah , between the porch and the altar , about twenty-five men , their backs toward the temple of Jehovah , and their faces eastward , and they are bowing themselves eastward to the sun . ylt @Ezekiel:8:17 @And He saith unto me , 'Hast thou seen , son of man ? hath it been a light thing to the house of Judah to do the abomination that they have done here , that they have filled the land with violence , and turn back to provoke Me to anger ? and lo , they are putting forth the branch unto their nose ! ylt @Ezekiel:8:18 @And I also deal in fury , Mine eye doth not pity , nor do I spare , and they have cried in Mine ears -- a loud voice -- and I do not hear them .'
