Ezekiel 44:4-8
New American Standard Bible
4 Then He brought me by way of the (A)north gate to the front of the house; and I looked, and behold, the (B)glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord, and I (C)fell on my face. 5 And the Lord said to me, “Son of man, [a](D)pay attention, see with your eyes and hear with your ears everything that I say to you concerning all the (E)statutes of the house of the Lord and all its laws; and [b]pay attention to the entrance of the house, with all the exits of the sanctuary. 6 You shall say to the [c](F)rebellious ones, to the house of Israel, ‘This is what the Lord [d]God says: “(G)Enough of all your abominations, house of Israel, 7 when you brought in (H)foreigners, (I)uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary to profane it, My house, when you (J)offered My food, the fat, and the blood and they (K)broke My covenant—this in addition to all your abominations. 8 And you have not [e](L)taken responsibility for My holy things yourselves, but you have appointed foreigners [f]to take responsibility for My sanctuary.”
