Ezekiel 7:20 Context
18They shall also girde themselues with sackcloth, and horrour shall couer them, and shame shall be vpon all faces, and baldnesse vpon all their heads. 19They shall cast their siluer in the streets, and their golde shalbe remooued: their siluer and their golde shall not be able to deliuer them in the day of the wrath of the Lord: they shall not satisfie their soules, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumbling blocke of their iniquitie. 20¶ As for the beautie of his ornament, he set it in maiestie: but they made the images of their abominations, and of their detestable things therein: therefore haue I set it farre from them. 21And I will giue it into the hands of the strangers for a pray, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoile, and they shall pollute it. 22My face will I turne also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the robbers shall enter into it and defile it.
