And it came to pass in the sixthH8345 yearH8141, in the sixthH8345 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I satH3427 in mine houseH1004, and the eldersH2205 of JudahH3063 satH3427 beforeH6440 me, that the handH3027 of the LordH136 GODH3069 fellH5307 there upon me.
Then I beheldH7200, and lo a likenessH1823 as the appearanceH4758 of fireH784: from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even downwardH4295, fireH784; and from his loinsH4975 even upwardH4605, as the appearanceH4758 of brightnessH2096, as the colourH5869 of amberH2830.
And he put forthH7971 the formH8403 of an handH3027, and tookH3947 me by a lockH6734 of mine headH7218; and the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375 between the earthH776 and the heavenH8064, and broughtH935 me in the visionsH4759 of GodH430 to JerusalemH3389, to the doorH6607 of the innerH6442 gateH8179 that lookethH6437 toward the northH6828; where was the seatH4186 of the imageH5566 of jealousyH7068, which provoketh to jealousyH7069.
And, behold, the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was there, according to the visionH4758 that I sawH7200 in the plainH1237.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 now the wayH1870 toward the northH6828. So I lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869 the wayH1870 toward the northH6828, and behold northwardH6828 at the gateH8179 of the altarH4196 this imageH5566 of jealousyH7068 in the entryH872.
He saidH559 furthermore unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, seestH7200 thou what they doH6213? even the greatH1419 abominationsH8441 that the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 committethH6213 here, that I should go far offH7368 from my sanctuaryH4720? but turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441.
And he broughtH935 me to the doorH6607 of the courtH2691; and when I lookedH7200, behold aH259 holeH2356 in the wallH7023.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, digH2864 now in the wallH7023: and when I had diggedH2864 in the wallH7023, behold aH259 doorH6607.
And he saidH559 unto me, Go inH935, and beholdH7200 the wickedH7451 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213 here.
So I went inH935 and sawH7200; and behold every formH8403 of creeping thingsH7431, and abominableH8263 beastsH929, and all the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, pourtrayedH2707 upon the wallH7023 round aboutH5439.
And there stoodH5975 beforeH6440 them seventyH7657 menH376 of the ancientsH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and in the midstH8432 of them stoodH5975 JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, with every manH376 his censerH4730 in his handH3027; and a thickH6282 cloudH6051 of incenseH7004 went upH5927.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, hast thou seenH7200 what the ancientsH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 doH6213 in the darkH2822, every manH376 in the chambersH2315 of his imageryH4906? for they sayH559, The LORDH3068 seethH7200 us not; the LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 the earthH776.
He saidH559 also unto me, TurnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213.
Then he broughtH935 me to the doorH6607 of the gateH8179 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004 which was toward the northH6828; and, behold, there satH3427 womenH802 weepingH1058 for TammuzH8542.
Then saidH559 he unto me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 than these.
And he broughtH935 me into the innerH6442 courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, and, behold, at the doorH6607 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, were about fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 menH376, with their backsH268 toward the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, and their facesH6440 toward the eastH6924; and they worshippedH7812 the sunH8121 toward the eastH6924.
Then he saidH559 unto me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? Is it a light thingH7043 to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 that they commitH6213 the abominationsH8441 which they commitH6213 here? for they have filledH4390 the landH776 with violenceH2555, and have returnedH7725 to provoke me to angerH3707: and, lo, they putH7971 the branchH2156 to their noseH639. {Is it…: or, Is there any thing lighter than to commit}
Therefore will I also dealH6213 in furyH2534: mine eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347, neither will I have pityH2550: and though they cryH7121 in mine earsH241 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, yet will I not hearH8085 them.

Then saidH559 he unto me, The iniquityH5771 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063 is exceedingH3966+H3966 greatH1419, and the landH776 is fullH4390 of bloodH1818, and the cityH5892 fullH4390 of perversenessH4297: for they sayH559, The LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 the earthH776, and the LORDH3068 seethH7200 not. {full of blood: Heb. filled with, etc} {perverseness: or, wresting of judgment}

They are of those that rebelH4775 against the lightH216; they knowH5234 not the waysH1870 thereof, nor abideH3427 in the pathsH5410 thereof.
The murdererH7523 risingH6965 with the lightH216 killethH6991 the poorH6041 and needyH34, and in the nightH3915 is as a thiefH1590.
The eyeH5869 also of the adultererH5003 waitethH8104 for the twilightH5399, sayingH559, No eyeH5869 shall seeH7789 me: and disguisethH5643+H7760 his faceH6440. {disguiseth…: Heb. setteth his face in secret}

For the morningH1242 is to them even asH3162 the shadow of deathH6757: if one knowH5234 them, they are in the terrorsH1091 of the shadow of deathH6757.
And thou sayestH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? can he judgeH8199 through the dark cloudH6205? {How: or, What}
ForG1063 it isG2076 a shameG149 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of those thingsG2931 which are doneG1096 ofG5259 themG846 in secretG2931.
AndG1161 thisG3778 isG2076 the condemnationG2920, thatG3754 lightG5457 is comeG2064 intoG1519 the worldG2889, andG2532 menG444 lovedG25 darknessG4655 ratherG3123 thanG2228 lightG5457, becauseG1063 theirG846 deedsG2041 wereG2258 evilG4190.
And they sayH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? and is thereH3426 knowledgeH1844 in the most HighH5945?
ForG1063 every oneG3956 that doethG4238 evilG5337 hatethG3404 the lightG5457, neitherG2532+G3756 comethG2064 toG4314 the lightG5457, lestG3363 hisG846 deedsG2041 should be reprovedG1651. {reproved: or, discovered}
