3 E estendeu a forma de uma mão, e tomou-me pelos cabelos de minha cabeça; e o espírito me levantou entre a terra e o céu, e me trouxe a Jerusalém em visões de Deus, até a entrada da porta de dentro que está voltada ao norte, onde estava o lugar da imagem do ciúme, que provoca ciúme.

4 E eis que a a glória do Deus de Israel estava ali, conforme a visão que eu tinha visto no vale.

5 E disse-me: Filho do homem, levanta agora teus olhos para o norte. E levantei meus olhos para o norte, e eis que a imagem do ciúme estava ao lado norte, junto à porta do altar, na entrada.

6 Então me disse: Filho do homem, vês tu o que eles estão fazendo? As grandes abominações que a casa de Israel faz aqui, para me afastar de meu santuário? Porém ainda voltarás a ver abominações maiores.

7 E levou-me à porta do pátio; então olhei, e eis que havia um buraco na parede.
