Ezekiel 7:20 in Context — Ezekiel 7

18 E se vestirão de saco, e o tremor os cobrirá; em todos os rostos haverá vergonha, e todas as suas cabeças serão raspadas.

19 Lançarão sua prata pelas ruas, e seu ouro será como algo imundo; nem sua prata nem seu ouro poderá livrá-los no dia do furor do SENHOR; não saciarão suas almas, nem encherão suas entranhas; pois isto é o tropeço de sua maldade.

20 E tornaram a glória de seu ornamento em orgulho, e nela fizeram nela imagens de suas abominações e de suas coisas detestáveis; por isso eu a tornarei em coisa imunda para eles;

21 E a entregarei em mãos de estrangeiros para ser saqueada, e aos perversos da terra para servir de despojo; e a profanarão.

22 E desviarei meu rosto deles, e profanarão meu lugar secreto; pois nele entrarão destruidores, e o profanarão.
