4. The Glory of the Lord came into the Temple through the east gate.
5. Then the Spirit picked me up and brought me into the inner courtyard. The Glory of the Lord filled the Temple.
6. I heard someone speaking to me from inside the Temple. The man was still standing beside me.
7. The voice from the Temple said to me, “Son of man, this is the place with my throne and footstool. I will live in this place among the people of Israel forever. The family of Israel will not ruin my holy name again. The kings and their people will not bring shame to my name by committing sexual sins or by burying the dead bodies of their kings in this place.
