Then the glory of the <sc>Lordsc> arose from the cherub and moved to the threshold of the temple. The temple was filled with the cloud while the court was filled with the brightness of the <sc>Lordsc>&#8217;s glory.

<p class="poetry">I will put your flesh on the mountains,p> <p class="poetry">and fill the valleys with your maggot-infested carcass.<n id="1" />p>

<p class="bodytext">(The cherubim were standing on the south side<n id="1" /> of the temple when the man went in, and a cloud filled the inner court.)

You will be overcome by<n id="1" /> drunkenness and sorrow. The cup of your sister Samaria is a cup of horror and desolation.

<p class="poetry">add the pieces of meat to it,p> <p class="poetry">every good piece,p> <p class="poetry">the thigh and the shoulder;p> <p class="poetry">fill it with choice bones.p>

The ships of Tarshish<n id="1" /> were the transports for your merchandise.p> <p class="poetry">&#8220;&#8216;So you were filled and weighed down in the heart of the seas.p>

<p class="poetry">I will drench the land with the flowp> <p class="poetry">of your blood up to the mountains,p> <p class="poetry">and the ravines will be full of your blood.<n id="1" />p>

I will fill its mountains with its dead; on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines, those killed by the sword will fall.

Then a wind<n id="1" /> lifted me up and brought me to the inner court; I watched<n id="2" /> the glory of the <sc>Lordsc> filling the temple.<n id="3" />p>

For seven days they will make atonement for the altar and cleanse it, so they will consecrate it.<n id="1" />

<p class="bodytext">He said to me, &#8220;The sin of the house of Israel and Judah is extremely great; the land is full of murder, and the city is full of corruption,<n id="1" /> for they say, &#8216;The <sc>Lordsc> has abandoned the land, and the <sc>Lordsc> does not see!&#8217;<n id="2" />

<p class="bodytext">He said to them, &#8220;Defile the temple and fill the courtyards with corpses. Go!&#8221; So they went out and struck people down throughout the city.

&#8220;Son of man, because Tyre<n id="1" /> has said about Jerusalem,<n id="2" /> &#8216;Aha, the gateway of the peoples is broken; it has swung open to me. I will become rich,<n id="3" /> now that she<n id="4" /> has been destroyed,&#8217;

<p class="poetry">In the abundance of your trade you were filled with violence,<n id="1" /> and you sinned;p> <p class="poetry">so I defiled you and banished you<n id="2" /> from the mountain of God &#8211;p> <p class="poetry">the guardian cherub expelled you<n id="3" /> from the midst of the stones of fire.p>

<p class="bodytext">He said to me, &#8220;Son of man, feed your stomach and fill your belly with this scroll I am giving to you.&#8221; So I ate it,<n id="1" /> and it was sweet like honey in my mouth.p>
