Ezekiel 43:4-7
New King James Version
4 (A)And the glory of the Lord came into the [a]temple by way of the gate which faces toward the east. 5 (B)The Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, (C)the glory of the Lord filled the [b]temple.
6 Then I heard Him speaking to me from the temple, while (D)a man stood beside me. 7 And He said to me, “Son of man, this is (E)the place of My throne and (F)the place of the soles of My feet, (G)where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever. (H)No more shall the house of Israel defile My holy name, they nor their kings, by their [c]harlotry or with (I)the carcasses of their kings on their high places.

Ezekiel 43:4-7
New International Version
4 The glory(A) of the Lord entered the temple through the gate facing east.(B) 5 Then the Spirit(C) lifted me up(D) and brought me into the inner court, and the glory(E) of the Lord filled the temple.(F)
6 While the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple. 7 He said: “Son of man, this is the place of my throne(G) and the place for the soles of my feet. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever. The people of Israel will never again defile(H) my holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and the funeral offerings[a] for their kings at their death.[b](I)
