Ezekiel 43:5-9
New King James Version
5 (A)The Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, (B)the glory of the Lord filled the [a]temple.
6 Then I heard Him speaking to me from the temple, while (C)a man stood beside me. 7 And He said to me, “Son of man, this is (D)the place of My throne and (E)the place of the soles of My feet, (F)where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever. (G)No more shall the house of Israel defile My holy name, they nor their kings, by their [b]harlotry or with (H)the carcasses of their kings on their high places. 8 (I)When they set their threshold by My threshold, and their doorpost by My doorpost, with a wall between them and Me, they defiled My holy name by the abominations which they committed; therefore I have consumed them in My anger. 9 Now let them put their harlotry and the carcasses of their kings far away from Me, and I will dwell in their midst forever.

Ezekiel 43:5-9
New International Version
5 Then the Spirit(A) lifted me up(B) and brought me into the inner court, and the glory(C) of the Lord filled the temple.(D)
6 While the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speaking to me from inside the temple. 7 He said: “Son of man, this is the place of my throne(E) and the place for the soles of my feet. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever. The people of Israel will never again defile(F) my holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their prostitution and the funeral offerings[a] for their kings at their death.[b](G) 8 When they placed their threshold next to my threshold and their doorposts beside my doorposts, with only a wall between me and them, they defiled my holy name by their detestable practices. So I destroyed them in my anger. 9 Now let them put away from me their prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings, and I will live among them forever.(H)
