Ezekiel 20:12-20

12AlsoH1571 I gaveH5414 them My sabbathsH7676 to be a 1signH226 betweenH996 Me and them, that they might knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068 who sanctifiesH6942 them. 13But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 2rebelledH4784 against Me in the wildernessH4057. They did not walkH1980 in My statutesH2708 and they rejectedH3988 My ordinancesH4941, 3by whichH834, if a manH120 4observesH6213 them, he will liveH2421; and My 5sabbathsH7676 they greatlyH3966 profanedH2490. Then I 6resolvedH559 to 7pourH8210 out My wrathH2534 on them in the wildernessH4057, to annihilateH3615 them. 14But I actedH6213 for the sakeH4616 of My nameH8034, that it should not be profanedH2490 in the sightH5869 of the nationsH1471, before whoseH834 sightH5869 I had broughtH3318 them out. 15AlsoH1571 8I sworeH5375H3027 to them in the wildernessH4057 that I would not bringH935 them into the landH776 whichH834 I had givenH5414 them, flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, whichH1931 is the gloryH6643 of allH3605 landsH776, 16becauseH3282 they rejectedH3988 My ordinancesH4941, and as for My statutesH2708, they did not walkH1980 in them; they even profanedH2490 My sabbathsH7676, for their 9heartH3820 continually wentH1980 afterH310 their idolsH1544. 17Yet My eyeH5869 sparedH2347 them ratherH4480 thanH4480 destroyingH7843 them, and I did not causeH6213 their 10annihilationH3617 in the wildernessH4057.

18“I saidH559 to their 1112childrenH1121 in the wildernessH4057, ‘13Do not walkH1980 in the statutesH2706 of your fathersH1 or keepH8104 their ordinancesH4941 or defileH2930 yourselves with their idolsH1544. 1914I am the LordH3068 your GodH430; 15walkH1980 in My statutesH2708 and keepH8104 My ordinancesH4941 and 16observeH6213 them. 2017SanctifyH6942 My sabbathsH7676; and they shall be a signH226 betweenH996 Me and you, that you may knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068 your GodH430.’
