1. And it came to pass H1961 in the sixth H8345 year H8141 , in the sixth H8345 month , in the fifth H2568 day of the month H2320 , as I H589 sat H3427 in mine house H1004 , and the elders H2205 of Judah H3063 sat H3427 before H6440 me , that the hand H3027 of the Lord H136 GOD H3069 fell H5307 there H8033 upon H5921 me.
2. Then I beheld H7200 , and lo H2009 a likeness H1823 as the appearance H4758 of fire H784 : from the appearance H4480 H4758 of his loins H4975 even downward H4295 , fire H784 ; and from his loins H4480 H4975 even upward H4605 , as the appearance H4758 of brightness H2096 , as the color H5869 of amber H2830 .
3. And he put forth H7971 the form H8403 of a hand H3027 , and took H3947 me by a lock H6734 of mine head H7218 ; and the spirit H7307 lifted me up H5375 H853 between H996 the earth H776 and the heaven H8064 , and brought H935 me in the visions H4759 of God H430 to Jerusalem H3389 , to H413 the door H6607 of the inner H6442 gate H8179 that looketh H6437 toward the north H6828 ; where H834 H8033 was the seat H4186 of the image H5566 of jealousy H7068 , which provoketh to jealousy H7065 .
4. And, behold H2009 , the glory H3519 of the God H430 of Israel H3478 was there H8033 , according to the vision H4758 that H834 I saw H7200 in the plain H1237 .
5. Then said H559 he unto H413 me, Son H1121 of man H120 , lift up H5375 thine eyes H5869 now H4994 the way H1870 toward the north H6828 . So I lifted up H5375 mine eyes H5869 the way H1870 toward the north H6828 , and behold H2009 northward H4480 H6828 at the gate H8179 of the altar H4196 this H2088 image H5566 of jealousy H7068 in the entry H872 .
6. He said H559 furthermore unto H413 me, Son H1121 of man H120 , seest H7200 thou H859 what H4100 they H1992 do H6213 ? even the great H1419 abominations H8441 that H834 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 committeth H6213 here H6311 , that I should go far off H7368 from H4480 H5921 my sanctuary H4720 ? but turn thee yet again H7725 H5750 , and thou shalt see H7200 greater H1419 abominations H8441 .
7. And he brought H935 me to H413 the door H6607 of the court H2691 ; and when I looked H7200 , behold H2009 a H259 hole H2356 in the wall H7023 .
8. Then said H559 he unto H413 me, Son H1121 of man H120 , dig H2864 now H4994 in the wall H7023 : and when I had digged H2864 in the wall H7023 , behold H2009 a H259 door H6607 .
9. And he said H559 unto H413 me , Go in H935 , and behold H7200 H853 the wicked H7451 abominations H8441 that H834 they H1992 do H6213 here H6311 .
10. So I went in H935 and saw H7200 ; and behold H2009 every H3605 form H8403 of creeping things H7431 , and abominable H8263 beasts H929 , and all H3605 the idols H1544 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 , portrayed H2707 upon H5921 the wall H7023 round about H5439 .
11. And there stood H5975 before H6440 them seventy H7657 men H376 of the ancients H4480 H2205 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 , and in the midst H8432 of them stood H5975 Jaazaniah H2970 the son H1121 of Shaphan H8227 , with every man H376 his censer H4730 in his hand H3027 ; and a thick H6282 cloud H6051 of incense H7004 went up H5927 .
12. Then said H559 he unto H413 me, Son H1121 of man H120 , hast thou seen H7200 what H834 the ancients H2205 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 do H6213 in the dark H2822 , every man H376 in the chambers H2315 of his imagery H4906 ? for H3588 they say H559 , The LORD H3068 seeth H7200 us not H369 ; the LORD H3068 hath forsaken H5800 H853 the earth H776 .
13. He said H559 also unto H413 me , Turn thee yet again H7725 H5750 , and thou shalt see H7200 greater H1419 abominations H8441 that H834 they H1992 do H6213 .
14. Then he brought H935 me to H413 the door H6607 of the gate H8179 of the LORD H3068 's house H1004 which H834 was toward H413 the north H6828 ; and, behold H2009 , there H8033 sat H3427 women H802 weeping H1058 for H854 Tammuz H8542 .
15. Then said H559 he unto H413 me , Hast thou seen H7200 this , O son H1121 of man H120 ? turn thee yet again H7725 H5750 , and thou shalt see H7200 greater H1419 abominations H8441 than these H4480 H428 .
16. And he brought H935 me into H413 the inner H6442 court H2691 of the LORD H3068 's house H1004 , and, behold H2009 , at the door H6607 of the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 , between H996 the porch H197 and the altar H4196 , were about five H2568 and twenty H6242 men H376 , with their backs H268 toward H413 the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 , and their faces H6440 toward the east H6924 ; and they H1992 worshiped H7812 the sun H8121 toward the east H6924 .
17. Then he said H559 unto H413 me , Hast thou seen H7200 this , O son H1121 of man H120 ? Is it a light thing H7043 to the house H1004 of Judah H3063 that they commit H4480 H6213 H853 the abominations H8441 which H834 they commit H6213 here H6311 ? for H3588 they have filled H4390 H853 the land H776 with violence H2555 , and have returned H7725 to provoke me to anger H3707 : and, lo H2009 , they put H7971 H853 the branch H2156 to H413 their nose H639 .
18. Therefore will I H589 also H1571 deal H6213 in fury H2534 : mine eye H5869 shall not H3808 spare H2347 , neither H3808 will I have pity H2550 : and though they cry H7121 in mine ears H241 with a loud H1419 voice H6963 , yet will I not H3808 hear H8085 them.
