9 And he says to me, Enter, and see the evil abhorrences they work here.
10 - and I enter and see; and behold, every pattern of creepers and abominable animals and all the idols of the house of Yisra El engraved on the wall all around - all around.
11 And standing there at their face seventy men of the elders of the house of Yisra El, and Yaazan Yah the son of Shaphan stands midst them; every man with his censer in his hand; and a voluminous cloud of incense ascends.
12 And says he to me, Son of humanity, you see what the elders of the house of Yisra El work in the dark - every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, Yah Veh sees us not; Yah Veh forsook the earth.
13 And he says to me, Turn yet again, and see greater abhorrences they work.
14 - and he brings me to the opening of the portal of the house of Yah Veh northward; and behold, women sitting and weeping for Tammuz.
15 And he says to me, See you, O son of humanity? turn yet again and see greater abhorrences than these.
16 And he brings me into the inner court of the house of Yah Veh, and behold, at the portal of the manse of Yah Veh between the porch and the sacrifice altar - about twenty-five men with their backs toward the manse of Yah Veh and their faces eastward; and they prostrate eastward toward the sun.
17 And he says to me, See you, O son of humanity? Is it trifling to the house of Yah Hudah to work the abhorrences they work here? For they fill the land with violence and return to vex me: and behold, they spread the twig to their nostrils.
18 So I also work in fury: neither my eye spares, nor I compassion: and though they call out in my ears with a great voice, yet I hear them not.
