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 Yahweh filled the house of Yahweh, and I (C)fell on my face. Then Yahweh said to me, “Son of man, (D)set your heart on and see with your eyes and hear with your ears all that I say to you concerning all the (E)statutes of the house of Yahweh and concerning all its laws; and set your heart on the entrance of the house, with all exits of the sanctuary. And you shall say to the [a](F)rebellious ones, to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “(G)Enough of all your abominations, O house of Israel, when you brought in (H)foreigners, (I)uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary to profane it, even My house, when you (J)brought near My food, the fat and the blood. So they (K)made My covenant void—this in addition to all your abominations. And you have not (L)kept the responsibility of My holy things yourselves, but you have set foreigners as keepers of the responsibility given by Me for My sanctuary.”

Also He brought me by way of the north gate to the front of the [a]temple; so I looked, and (A)behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord; (B)and I fell on my face. And the Lord said to me, (C)“Son of man, [b]mark well, see with your eyes and hear with your ears, all that I say to you concerning all the (D)ordinances of the house of the Lord and all its laws. Mark well who may enter the house and all who go out from the sanctuary.

“Now say to the (E)rebellious, to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “O house of Israel, (F)let Us have no more of all your abominations. (G)When you brought in (H)foreigners, (I)uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary to defile it—My house—and when you offered (J)My food, (K)the fat and the blood, then they broke My covenant because of all your abominations. And you have not (L)kept charge of My holy things, but you have set others to keep charge of My sanctuary for you.”
