1 And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth [month], in the fifth [day] of the month, [as] I sat in my house, and the elders of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] sat before me, that the hand of the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER) fell there upon me.

2 Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his waist even downward, fire; and from his waist even upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the colour of amber.

3 And he put forth the form of an hand, and took me by a lock of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], to the door of the inner gate that looks toward the north; where [was] the seat of the image of jealousy, which provokes to jealousy.

4 And, behold, the glory of the God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] [was] there, according to the vision that I saw in the plain.

5 Then said he unto me, Son of man, lift up youri eyes now the way toward the north. So I lifted up my eyes the way toward the north, and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy in the entry.

6 He said furthermore unto me, Son of man, see youi what they do? [even] the great abominations that the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] commit here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? but turn youi yet again, [and] youi shall see greater abominations.

7 And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall.

8 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had excavated in the wall, behold a door.

9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.

10 So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], portrayed upon the wall round about.

11 And there stood before them seventy men of the elders of the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], and in the midst of them stood Ya’azanyahu [Yehovah hears] the son of Shafan [coney], with every man his censer in his hand; and a thick cloud of incense went up.

12 Then said he unto me, Son of man, have youi seen what the ancients of the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, The LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) sees us not; the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has forsaken the earth.

13 He said also unto me, Turn youi yet again, [and] youi shall see greater abominations that they do.

14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD-Yehōvah’s [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] house which [was] toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz (a Babylonian goddess) [sprout of life].

15 Then said he unto me, Have youi seen [this], O Son of man? turn youi yet again, [and] youi shall see greater abominations than these.

16 And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD-Yehōvah’s [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), between the porch and the altar, [were] about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.

17 Then he said unto me, Have youi seen [this], O Son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] 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.

18 Therefore will I also deal in fury: my eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, [yet] will I not hear them.
