+### [Read the passage.](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Ezekiel7.14-27)
+
+Though the trumpets of battle are blown, no soldiers are ready and able to
+answer the call. Though sword, famine, and pestilence kills a great multitude,
+a few survivors may escape to the mountains. There they will mourn over their
+lot, throwing away their gold and silver because they cannot use it to sate
+their hunger. This section probably refers to the silver and gold used to make
+idols or self-aggrandizing decorations. The Lord is making them detest the
+things He detests because of the wicked things they have done with such things.
+Instead of just being left on the side of the road, robbers and invaders will
+take away these religious items and profane them, making them doubly worthless
+in the eyes of the Israelites.
+
+Not only will the idolatrous items be profaned, but also the Lord's own temple.
+He will let even His earthly dwelling place be handed over to those who do not
+fear Him as a judgement on the people who should have revered Him. Because of
+God's blessing on Israel with His covenant, His presence, and His help in
+battle on numerous occasions, Israel and Judah had come to take their safety
+for granted. In particular, it was common for people to think Jerusalem could
+never fall because God's temple was there. However, more powerful than that
+idea are the curses God promised to His people if they did not follow the
+commands and statutes He had given to them.
+
+Both the city and the country was full of violence. The people sought prophetic
+visions while the priests didn't teach the law. Therefore everyone will be full
+of despair and terror because of what the Lord does to them. And then they will
+know who the Lord is.
