Ezekiel 8:12-14

Good News Translation

¹² God asked me, “Mortal man, do you see what the Israelite leaders are doing in secret? They are all worshiping in a room full of images. Their excuse is: ‘The Lord doesn't see us! He has abandoned the country.’”

¹³ Then the Lord said to me, “You are going to see them do even more disgusting things than that.” ¹⁴ So he took me to the north gate of the Temple and showed me women weeping over the death of the god Tammuz.^[a]
