26:008:008 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and
when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.
26:008:009 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations
that they do here.
26:008:010 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, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.
26:008:011 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.
26:008:012 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.
26:008:013 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.
26:008:014 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.
26:008:015 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.
26:008:016 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 the temple of the LORD, and their faces
toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.
26:008:017 Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it
a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the
abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the
land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger:
and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.
