II avait mis [entre eux] la noblesse de son magnifique ornement; mais ils y ont plac� des images de leurs abominations, et de leurs infamies, c'est pourquoi je la leur ai expos�e � �tre chass�e au loin.
Ils �taient fiers de cette splendide parure; ils en ont fait les images de leurs abominations, de leurs idoles; c'est pourquoi j'en ferai pour eux une chose souill�e.
Ils �taient fiers de leur magnifique parure, Et ils en ont fabriqu� les images de leurs abominations, de leurs idoles. C'est pourquoi je la rendrai pour eux un objet d'horreur;

Gill's Notes on the Bible
As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty,.... Or, "for pride" i. The gold, silver, jewels, riches, and treasure, which the Lord gave to this people, they made a bad use of; and instead of contributing to the support of his worship and interest, and of giving liberally to the poor, they converted it to their own pride and luxury: or rather the temple, as Jarchi and Kimchi interpret it, is meant; which was a beautiful structure, and adorned with gifts, and set for glory, majesty, and excellency by the Lord; yea, where his excellent Majesty dwelt himself:
but they made the images of their abominations [and] of their detestable things therein; or, "of it" k; that is, of their gold and silver, which is another bad use they put their riches to: or rather "in it" l; that is, the temple; where, having made their idols, they placed them; see Jeremiah 7:30;
therefore have I set it far from them; that being destroyed, and they being carried away captive into a strange land, far from that.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Or, And “the beauty of his ornament, he” (the people) turned “it” to pride.
Have I set it far from them - Rather, as in the margin - therefore have I made it their defilement and their disgrace.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 7:20. As for the beauty of his ornament — Their beautiful temple was their highest ornament, and God made it majestic by his presence. But they have even taken its riches to make their idols, which they have brought into the very courts of the Lord's house; and therefore God hath set it - the temple, from him - given it up to pillage. Some say it means, "They took their ornaments, which were their pride, and made them into images to worship."
