Ezekiel 8:4-6
New English Translation
4 Then I perceived that the glory of the God of Israel was there, as in the vision I had seen earlier in the valley.
5 He said to me, “Son of man, look up toward[a] the north.” So I looked up toward the north, and I noticed to the north of the altar gate was this statue of jealousy at the entrance.
6 He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they are doing—the great abominations that the people[b] of Israel are practicing here, to drive me far from my sanctuary? But you will see greater abominations than these!”

Ezekiel 8:4-6
New International Version
4 And there before me was the glory(A) of the God of Israel, as in the vision I had seen in the plain.(B)
5 Then he said to me, “Son of man, look toward the north.” So I looked, and in the entrance north of the gate of the altar I saw this idol(C) of jealousy.
6 And he said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they are doing—the utterly detestable(D) things the Israelites are doing here, things that will drive me far from my sanctuary?(E) But you will see things that are even more detestable.”
