Ezekiel 9:7-9

Common English Bible

⁷ He said to them: Make the temple unclean! Fill the courts with the slain! Go! And they went out and attacked the city.

⁸ While they were attacking, I was left alone. I fell on my face, and I cried out, “Oh, Lord God! When you pour out your wrath on Jerusalem, will you destroy all that is left of Israel?”

⁹ He said to me: “Judah and the house of Israel are very, very guilty. The land is filled with blood, and the city is full of injustice. They have said, ‘The Lord has forsaken the land; the Lord sees nothing.’
