Ezekiel 8:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ And He caused me to enter 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 twenty-five men with their backs toward the Temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the East. And they worshipped the Sun, toward the East.

¹⁷ Then He said to me: “Have you seen, O son of man? Is it a small thing to the House of Judah to commit these abominations which they do here? For they have filled the land with cruelty, and have returned to provoke Me. And lo, they have put the branch before their noses.

¹⁸ “Therefore, I will also execute wrath. My Eye shall not spare, nor will I have pity. And though they cry in My Ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.”
