Ezekiel 8:18
Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.
Therefore will I also deal in fury,.... Being provoked by such abominable idolatries, and such horrid insolence, and most contemptuous treatment:
mine eye shall not spare: neither will I have pity: see Ezekiel 5:11;
and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice; very pressingly and earnestly for help, being in great distress:
yet will I not hear them; as they turned their backs on him, he will turn a deaf ear to them, and not regard their cries. The Targum is,
"they shall pray before me, with a great voice, and I will not receive their prayer.''
