20Ezekiel 20:21

19I am the Lord your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them;Select Ezekiel 20:19

20And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the Lord your God.Select Ezekiel 20:20

21Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.Select Ezekiel 20:21

22Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand, and wrought for my name’s sake, that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen, in whose sight I brought them forth.Select Ezekiel 20:22

23I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries;Select Ezekiel 20:23
