16 And he brought me into (A)the inner court of the house of the Lord. And behold, at the entrance of the temple of the Lord, (B)between the (C)porch and (D)the altar, were about twenty-five men, (E)with their backs to the temple of the Lord, and their faces toward the east, worshiping (F)the sun toward the east. 17 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, O (G)son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit (H)the abominations that they commit here, that (I)they should fill the land with violence and (J)provoke me still further to anger? Behold, they put the branch to their[a] nose. 18 Therefore (K)I will act in wrath. (L)My eye will not spare, nor will I have pity. (M)And though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.”
