Ezekiel 43:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 And he said to me, “Son of man,[a] this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of my feet where I will dwell[b] in the midst of the Israelites[c] to eternity, and they, the house of Israel, they and their kings, will not again defile my holy name[d] with their fornication and with their offerings for the dead[e] of their kings on their high places. 8 When they placed their threshold[f] with[g] my threshold, their doorframe beside my doorframe and the[h] wall was between me and between them, then they defiled my holy name,[i] with their detestable things that they did, and so I consumed them in my anger. 9 Now let them send their fornication far away and the offerings for the dead[j] of their kings away from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.[k]
