Ezekiel 7:17-22

17 Every hand will go limp, and every knee will become as weak as water.

18 They will put on sackcloth and be clothed with terror. Their faces will be covered with shame and their heads will be shaved.

19 They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will be an unclean thing. Their silver and gold will not be able to save them in the day of the Lord’s wrath. They will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it, for it has made them stumble into sin.

20 They were proud of their beautiful jewelry and used it to make their detestable idols and vile images. Therefore I will turn these into an unclean thing for them.

21 I will hand it all over as plunder to foreigners and as loot to the wicked of the earth, and they will defile it.

22 I will turn my face away from them, and they will desecrate my treasured place; robbers will enter it and desecrate it.
