Bible. Ezekiel
26:020:015 Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that
I would not bring them into the land which I had given them,
flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands;
26:020:016 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my
statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after
their idols.
26:020:017 Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying them,
neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness.
26:020:018 But I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk ye not
in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their
judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols:
26:020:019 I am the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my
judgments, and do them;
26:020:020 And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me
and you, that ye may know that I am the LORD your God.
26:020:021 Notwithstanding 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.
26:020:022 Nevertheless 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.
26:020:023 I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the wilderness, that I
would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them
through the countries;
26:020:024 Because they had not executed my judgments, but had despised
my statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths, and their eyes were
after their fathers' idols.
26:020:025 Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and
judgments whereby they should not live;
26:020:026 And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to
pass through the fire all that openeth the womb, that I might
make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am
the LORD.
26:020:027 Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say
unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers
have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass
against me.
26:020:028 For when I had brought them into the land, for the which I
lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every
high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there
their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of
their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and
poured out there their drink offerings.
