Ezekiel 20:5-32 And say to them, Thus said the Lord GOD; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand to the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up my hand to them, saying, I am the LORD your God;

5 H559 And say H3541 to them, Thus H559 said H136 the Lord H3069 GOD; H3117 In the day H977 when I chose H3478 Israel, H5375 and lifted H3027 up my hand H2233 to the seed H1004 of the house H3290 of Jacob, H3045 and made myself known H776 to them in the land H4714 of Egypt, H5375 when I lifted H3027 up my hand H559 to them, saying, H3068 I am the LORD H430 your God;

6 H3117 In the day H5375 that I lifted H3027 up my hand H3318 to them, to bring H3318 them forth H776 of the land H4714 of Egypt H413 into H776 a land H8446 that I had espied H2100 for them, flowing H2461 with milk H1706 and honey, H1958 which H6643 is the glory H3605 of all H776 lands:

7 H559 Then said H7993 I to them, Cast H376 you away every man H8251 the abominations H5869 of his eyes, H2930 and defile H1544 not yourselves with the idols H4714 of Egypt: H3068 I am the LORD H430 your God.

8 H4784 But they rebelled H14 against me, and would H8085 not listen H376 to me: they did not every man H7993 cast H8251 away the abominations H5869 of their eyes, H3808 neither H5800 did they forsake H1544 the idols H4714 of Egypt: H559 then I said, H8210 I will pour H2534 out my fury H3615 on them, to accomplish H639 my anger H8432 against them in the middle H776 of the land H4714 of Egypt.

9 H6213 But I worked H8034 for my name’s H4616 sake, H2490 that it should not be polluted H5869 before H1471 the heathen, H8432 among H834 whom H853 they were, in whose H5869 sight H3045 I made myself known H3318 to them, in bringing H3318 them forth H776 out of the land H4714 of Egypt.

10 H3318 Why I caused them to go H3318 forth H776 out of the land H4714 of Egypt, H935 and brought H413 them into H4057 the wilderness.

11 H5414 And I gave H2708 them my statutes, H3045 and showed H4941 them my judgments, H834 which H120 if a man H6213 do, H2425 he shall even live in them.

12 H1571 Moreover H1571 also H5414 I gave H7676 them my sabbaths, H226 to be a sign H996 between H3045 me and them, that they might know H3068 that I am the LORD H6942 that sanctify them.

13 H1004 But the house H3478 of Israel H4784 rebelled H4057 against me in the wilderness: H1980 they walked H2708 not in my statutes, H3988 and they despised H4941 my judgments, H834 which H120 if a man H6213 do, H2425 he shall even live H7676 in them; and my sabbaths H3966 they greatly H2490 polluted: H559 then I said, H8210 I would pour H2534 out my fury H4057 on them in the wilderness, H3615 to consume them.

14 H6213 But I worked H8034 for my name’s H4616 sake, H2490 that it should not be polluted H5869 before H1471 the heathen, H834 in whose H5869 sight H3318 I brought them out.

15 H1571 Yet also H5375 I lifted H3027 up my hand H4057 to them in the wilderness, H935 that I would not bring H413 them into H776 the land H834 which H5414 I had given H2100 them, flowing H2461 with milk H1706 and honey, H1958 which H3605 is the glory of all H776 lands;

16 H3282 Because H3988 they despised H4941 my judgments, H1980 and walked H2708 not in my statutes, H2490 but polluted H7676 my sabbaths: H3820 for their heart H1980 went H310 after H1544 their idols.

17 H5869 Nevertheless my eye H2347 spared H7843 them from destroying H3808 them, neither H6213 did I make H3615 an end H4057 of them in the wilderness.

18 H559 But I said H1121 to their children H4057 in the wilderness, H3212 Walk H2706 you not in the statutes H1 of your fathers, H408 neither H8104 observe H4941 their judgments, H408 nor H2930 defile H1544 yourselves with their idols:

19 H3068 I am the LORD H430 your God; H3212 walk H2708 in my statutes, H8104 and keep H4941 my judgments, H6213 and do them;

20 H6942 And hallow H7676 my sabbaths; H226 and they shall be a sign H996 between H3045 me and you, that you may know H3068 that I am the LORD H430 your God.

21 H1121 Notwithstanding the children H4784 rebelled H1980 against me: they walked H2708 not in my statutes, H3808 neither H8104 kept H4941 my judgments H6213 to do H834 them, which H120 if a man H6213 do, H2425 he shall even live H2490 in them; they polluted H7676 my sabbaths: H559 then I said, H8210 I would pour H2534 out my fury H3615 on them, to accomplish H639 my anger H4057 against them in the wilderness.

22 H7725 Nevertheless I withdrew H3027 my hand, H6213 and worked H8034 for my name’s H4616 sake, H2490 that it should not be polluted H5869 in the sight H1471 of the heathen, H834 in whose H5869 sight H3318 I brought H3318 them forth.

23 H5375 I lifted H3027 up my hand H1571 to them also H4057 in the wilderness, H6327 that I would scatter H1471 them among the heathen, H2219 and disperse H776 them through the countries;

24 H3282 Because H6213 they had not executed H4941 my judgments, H3988 but had despised H2708 my statutes, H2490 and had polluted H7676 my sabbaths, H5869 and their eyes H310 were after H1 their fathers’ H1544 idols.

25 H5414 Why I gave H1571 them also H2706 statutes H2896 that were not good, H4941 and judgments H2421 whereby they should not live;

26 H2930 And I polluted H4979 them in their own gifts, H5674 in that they caused to pass H3605 through the fire all H6363 that opens H7356 the womb, H8074 that I might make them desolate, H4616 to the end H3045 that they might know H3068 that I am the LORD.

27 H3651 Therefore, H1121 son H120 of man, H1696 speak H1004 to the house H3478 of Israel, H559 and say H3541 to them, Thus H559 said H136 the Lord H3069 GOD; H5750 Yet H2063 in this H1 your fathers H1442 have blasphemed H4603 me, in that they have committed H4604 a trespass against me.

28 H935 For when I had brought H413 them into H776 the land, H834 for the which H5375 I lifted H3027 up my hand H5414 to give H7200 it to them, then they saw H3605 every H7311 high H1389 hill, H3605 and all H5687 the thick H6086 trees, H2076 and they offered H8033 there H2077 their sacrifices, H8033 and there H5414 they presented H3708 the provocation H7133 of their offering: H8033 there H7760 also they made H5207 their sweet H7381 smell, H5258 and poured H8033 out there H5262 their drink offerings.

29 H559 Then I said H4100 to them, What H1116 is the high H834 place whereunto H8033 H935 you go? H8034 And the name H7121 whereof is called H1117 Bamah H2088 to this H3117 day.

30 H3651 Why H559 say H1004 to the house H3478 of Israel, H3541 Thus H559 said H136 the Lord H3069 GOD; H2930 Are you polluted H1870 after the manner H1 of your fathers? H2181 and commit H2181 you prostitution H310 after H8251 their abominations?

31 H5375 For when you offer H4979 your gifts, H1121 when you make your sons H5674 to pass H784 through the fire, H2930 you pollute H3605 yourselves with all H1544 your idols, H3117 even to this day: H1875 and shall I be inquired H1004 of by you, O house H3478 of Israel? H2416 As I live, H5002 said H136 the Lord H3069 GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.

32 H5927 And that which comes H5921 into H7307 your mind H559 shall not be at all, that you say, H1471 We will be as the heathen, H4940 as the families H776 of the countries, H8334 to serve H6086 wood H68 and stone.
