New International Version
4 Then the man brought me by way of the north gate(A) to the front of the temple. I looked and saw the glory of the Lord filling the temple(B) of the Lord, and I fell facedown.(C)
5 The Lord said to me, “Son of man, look carefully, listen closely and give attention to everything I tell you concerning all the regulations and instructions regarding the temple of the Lord. Give attention to the entrance(D) to the temple and all the exits of the sanctuary.(E) 6 Say to rebellious Israel,(F) ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Enough of your detestable practices, people of Israel! 7 In addition to all your other detestable practices, you brought foreigners uncircumcised in heart(G) and flesh into my sanctuary, desecrating my temple while you offered me food, fat and blood, and you broke my covenant.(H) 8 Instead of carrying out your duty in regard to my holy things, you put others in charge of my sanctuary.(I)

4 Then he brought me by way of (A)the north gate to the front of the temple, and I looked, and behold, (B)the glory of the Lord filled the temple of the Lord. And (C)I fell on my face. 5 And the Lord said to me, (D)“Son of man, mark well, (E)see with your eyes, (F)and hear with your ears all that I shall tell you concerning (G)all the statutes of the temple of the Lord and all its laws. And mark well (H)the entrance to the temple and all the exits from the sanctuary. 6 And say to (I)the rebellious house,[a] to the (J)house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: O house of Israel, (K)enough of all your abominations, 7 in (L)admitting foreigners, (M)uncircumcised in heart and flesh, to be in my sanctuary, (N)profaning my temple, when you offer to me my food, the fat and the blood. You[b] have broken my covenant, in addition to all your abominations. 8 And (O)you have not kept charge of my holy things, but you have set others to keep my charge for you in my sanctuary.

King James Version
4 Then brought he me the way of the north gate before the house: and I looked, and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord: and I fell upon my face.
5 And the Lord said unto me, Son of man, mark well, and behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears all that I say unto thee concerning all the ordinances of the house of the Lord, and all the laws thereof; and mark well the entering in of the house, with every going forth of the sanctuary.
6 And thou shalt say to the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,
7 In that ye have brought into my sanctuary strangers, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant because of all your abominations.
8 And ye have not kept the charge of mine holy things: but ye have set keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.
