Ezekiel 8:3-5

Easy-to-Read Version

³ Then I saw something that looked like an arm. The arm reached out and grabbed me by the hair on my head. Then the Spirit^[a] lifted me into the air, and in a vision from God he took me to Jerusalem. He took me to the inner gate—the gate that is on the north side. The statue that makes God jealous is by that gate. ⁴ But the Glory of the God of Israel was there. The Glory looked just like the vision I saw in the valley by the Kebar Canal.

⁵ God spoke to me. He said, “Son of man,^[b] look toward the north.” So I looked, and there, north of the Altar Gate by the entrance, was that statue that made God jealous.
