And he said unto me, go in
Into the room or chamber the door opened into: and behold the wicked abominations they do here;

Ezekiel 8:9 In-Context

7 And he brought me to the entrance of the court; I looked, and there was a hole in the wall.
8 Then he said to me, "Mortal, dig through the wall"; and when I dug through the wall, there was an entrance.
9 He said to me, "Go in, and see the vile abominations that they are committing here."
10 So I went in and looked; there, portrayed on the wall all around, were all kinds of creeping things, and loathsome animals, and all the idols of the house of Israel.
11 Before them stood seventy of the elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah son of Shaphan standing among them. Each had his censer in his hand, and the fragrant cloud of incense was ascending.
