Ezekiel 7:19

Punishment For Abominations Throughout The Land

¹⁸ They will wear sackcloth, terror will cover them; shame will be on all their faces, and all of their heads will be shaved bald. ¹⁹ They will discard their silver in the streets, and their gold will be treated like filth. Their silver and gold will not be able to deliver them on the day of the Lord's fury. They will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs because their wealth was the obstacle leading to their iniquity. ²⁰ They rendered the beauty of his ornaments into pride, and with it they made their abominable images -- their detestable idols. Therefore I will render it filthy to them.
