11. Seventy leaders of Israel were standing there with Jaazaniah son of Shaphan in the center. Each of them held an incense burner, from which a cloud of incense rose above their heads.
12. Then the lord said to me, “Son of man, have you seen what the leaders of Israel are doing with their idols in dark rooms? They are saying, ‘The lord doesn’t see us; he has deserted our land!’”
13. Then the lord added, “Come, and I will show you even more detestable sins than these!”
14. He brought me to the north gate of the lord’s Temple, and some women were sitting there, weeping for the god Tammuz.
