Abominations in the Temple

1 And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house with athe elders of Judah sitting before me, that bthe hand of the Lord God fell upon me there.  
2 aThen I looked, and there was a likeness, like the appearance of fire—from the appearance of His waist and downward, fire; and from His waist and upward, like the appearance of brightness, blike the color of amber.  
3 He astretched out the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my hair; and bthe Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven, and cbrought me in visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the north gate of the inner court, dwhere the seat of the image of jealousy was, which eprovokes to jealousy.  
4 And behold, the aglory of the God of Israel was there, like the vision that I bsaw in the plain.  
5 Then He said to me, “Son of man, lift your eyes now toward the north.” So I lifted my eyes toward the north, and there, north of the altar gate, was this image of jealousy in the entrance.
6 Furthermore He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great aabominations that the house of Israel commits here, to make Me go far away from My sanctuary? Now turn again, you will see greater abominations.”  
7 So He brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, there was a hole in the wall.
