Йезекиил 8
Bulgarian Bible
8 А в шестата година, в шестия месец, на петия ден от месеца, като седях в къщата си, и Юдовите старейшини седяха пред мене, ръката на Господа Иеова слетя там върху мене.
2 Погледнах, и ето подобие на глед като огън; от това, което се виждаше, че е кръстът му и надолу, огън; и от кръста му нагоре, наглед като сияние, като че ли беше светъл метал.
3 И Той простря подобие на ръка и ме хвана за космите на главата ми; и Духът ме издигна между земята и небето, и пренесе ме чрез Божии видения в Ерусалим, до входа на северната порта на вътрешния двор, гдето бе поставен възбудителят на ревността идол, който предизвиква ревнование.
4 ето, славата на Израилевия Бог бе там, както във видението, което видях на полето.
5 Тогава ми рече: Сине човешки, подигни сега очите си към север. И тъй, повдигнах очите си към север, и, ето, на север от вратата, която води за олтара, при входа стоеше тоя възбудител на ревнивост идол.
6 И рече ми: Сине човешки, видиш ли що правят тия? - големите мерзости, които Израилевият дом върши тук, та да се отдалеча от светилището Си? Но ще видиш още пак големи мерзости.
7 И тъй, заведе ме до вратата на двора; и, като погледнах, ето една дупка в стената.
8 Тогава ми рече: Сине човешки, копай сега в стената. И като копах в стената, ето един вход.
9 И рече ми: Влез та виж нечестивите мерзости, които тия вършат тука.
10 Влязох прочее и погледнах; и ето всякакви подобия на гадове и гнусни животни, и всичките идоли на Израилевия дом, изобразени на стената от край до край.
11 И пред тях стоеха седемдесет мъже от старейшините на Израилевия дом, всред които стоеше Яазания Сафановия син, всеки с кадилницата си в ръката си; и гъст облак темян се издигаше.
12 Тогава ми рече: Сине човешки, видя ли що правят в тъмнината старейшините на Израилевия дом, всички в скришните стаи за изображения? защото си казват: Господ не ни вижда; Господ е напуснал земята.
13 Рече ми още: Ще видиш още пак големи мерзости, които вършат.
14 Тогава ме заведе до входа на северната порта на Господния дом; и, ето, там седяха жени та оплакваха Тамуза*.
15 И рече ми: Видя ли, сине човешки? Ще видиш още пак и по-големи мерзости от тия.
16 И въведе ме във вътрешния двор на Господния дом; и, ето, във входа на Господния храм, между предхрамието и олтара, около двадесет и пет мъже, с гърбовете си към Господния храм, и с лицата си към изток, които се кланяха на слънцето към изток.
17 Тогава ми рече: Видя ли, сине човешки? Малко ли е за Юдовия дом дето вършат мерзости, каквито тия вършат тука? Защото като напълниха земята с насилия, пак предизвикват гнева Ми; и, ето, турят клончето до ноздрите си.
18 Затова и аз ще действувам с ярост; окото Ми няма да пощади, нито ще покажа милост; и макар да извикат в ушите Ми с висок глас, няма да ги послушам.
Ezekiel 8
New International Version
Idolatry in the Temple
8 In the sixth year, in the sixth month on the fifth day, while I was sitting in my house and the elders(A) of Judah were sitting before(B) me, the hand of the Sovereign Lord came on me there.(C) 2 I looked, and I saw a figure like that of a man.[a] From what appeared to be his waist down he was like fire, and from there up his appearance was as bright as glowing metal.(D) 3 He stretched out what looked like a hand(E) and took me by the hair of my head. The Spirit lifted me up(F) between earth and heaven and in visions(G) of God he took me to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the inner court,(H) where the idol that provokes to jealousy(I) stood. 4 And there before me was the glory(J) of the God of Israel, as in the vision I had seen in the plain.(K)
5 Then he said to me, “Son of man, look toward the north.” So I looked, and in the entrance north of the gate of the altar I saw this idol(L) of jealousy.
6 And he said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they are doing—the utterly detestable(M) things the Israelites are doing here, things that will drive me far from my sanctuary?(N) But you will see things that are even more detestable.”
7 Then he brought me to the entrance to the court. I looked, and I saw a hole in the wall. 8 He said to me, “Son of man, now dig into the wall.” So I dug into the wall and saw a doorway there.
9 And he said to me, “Go in and see the wicked and detestable things they are doing here.” 10 So I went in and looked, and I saw portrayed all over the walls(O) all kinds of crawling things and unclean(P) animals and all the idols of Israel.(Q) 11 In front of them stood seventy elders(R) of Israel, and Jaazaniah son of Shaphan was standing among them. Each had a censer(S) in his hand, and a fragrant cloud of incense(T) was rising.(U)
12 He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen what the elders of Israel are doing in the darkness,(V) each at the shrine of his own idol? They say, ‘The Lord does not see(W) us; the Lord has forsaken the land.’” 13 Again, he said, “You will see them doing things that are even more detestable.”
14 Then he brought me to the entrance of the north gate of the house of the Lord, and I saw women sitting there, mourning the god Tammuz.(X) 15 He said to me, “Do you see this, son of man? You will see things that are even more detestable than this.”
16 He then brought me into the inner court(Y) of the house of the Lord, and there at the entrance to the temple, between the portico and the altar,(Z) were about twenty-five men. With their backs toward the temple of the Lord and their faces toward the east, they were bowing down to the sun(AA) in the east.(AB)
17 He said to me, “Have you seen this, son of man? Is it a trivial matter for the people of Judah to do the detestable things(AC) they are doing here? Must they also fill the land with violence(AD) and continually arouse my anger?(AE) Look at them putting the branch to their nose! 18 Therefore I will deal with them in anger;(AF) I will not look on them with pity(AG) or spare them. Although they shout in my ears, I will not listen(AH) to them.”

Abominations in the Temple
8 (A)In the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, (B)as I sat in my house, with (C)the elders of Judah sitting before me, (D)the hand of the Lord God fell upon me there. 2 Then I looked, and behold, (E)a form that had the appearance of a man.[a] (F)Below what appeared to be his waist was fire, and above his waist was something like the appearance of brightness, like (G)gleaming metal.[b] 3 He (H)put out the form of a hand and took me by a lock of my head, and the Spirit lifted me up (I)between earth and heaven and (J)brought me in (K)visions of God to Jerusalem, (L)to the entrance of the gateway of the inner court that faces north, (M)where was the seat of the (N)image of jealousy, (O)which provokes to jealousy. 4 And behold, (P)the glory of the God of Israel was there, like the vision that I saw (Q)in the valley.
5 Then he said to me, (R)“Son of man, lift up your eyes now toward the north.” So I lifted up my eyes toward the north, and behold, north of (S)the altar gate, in the entrance, was this (T)image of jealousy. 6 And he said to me, “Son of man, (U)do you see what they are doing, (V)the great abominations that the house of Israel are committing here, (W)to drive me far from my sanctuary? But you will see still greater abominations.”
7 And he brought me to the entrance of the court, and when I looked, behold, there was a hole in the wall. 8 Then he said to me, “Son of man, (X)dig in the wall.” So I dug in the wall, and behold, there was an entrance. 9 And he said to me, “Go in, and see (Y)the vile abominations that they are committing here.” 10 So I went in and saw. And there, (Z)engraved on the wall all around, was (AA)every form of (AB)creeping things and loathsome beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel. 11 And before them stood (AC)seventy men of (AD)the elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah the son of (AE)Shaphan standing among them. Each had his censer in his hand, and (AF)the smoke of the cloud of incense went up. 12 Then he said to me, “Son of man, have you seen what the elders of the house of Israel are doing (AG)in the dark, each (AH)in his room of pictures? For they say, (AI)‘The Lord does not see us, the Lord has forsaken the land.’” 13 He said also to me, (AJ)“You will see still greater abominations that they commit.”
14 Then he brought me to (AK)the entrance of the north gate of the house of the Lord, and behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz. 15 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, O (AL)son of man? (AM)You will see still greater abominations than these.”
16 And he brought me into (AN)the inner court of the house of the Lord. And behold, at the entrance of the temple of the Lord, (AO)between the (AP)porch and (AQ)the altar, were about twenty-five men, (AR)with their backs to the temple of the Lord, and their faces toward the east, worshiping (AS)the sun toward the east. 17 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, O (AT)son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit (AU)the abominations that they commit here, that (AV)they should fill the land with violence and (AW)provoke me still further to anger? Behold, they put the branch to their[c] nose. 18 Therefore (AX)I will act in wrath. (AY)My eye will not spare, nor will I have pity. (AZ)And though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.”
