20When they cameH935 to the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 they wentH935, they 1profanedH2490 My holyH6944 nameH8034, because it was saidH559 of them, ‘TheseH428 are the 2peopleH5971 of the LordH3068; yet they have comeH3381 out of His landH776.’ 21But I had 3concernH2550 for My 4holyH6944 nameH8034, whichH834 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 had profanedH2490 among the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 they wentH935.

22“ThereforeH3651 sayH559 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 GodH3068, “It is 5not for your sakeH4616, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, that I am about to actH6213, but for My holyH6944 nameH8034, whichH834 you have profanedH2490 among the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 you wentH935. 23I will 6vindicateH6942 the holinessH6942 of My greatH1419 nameH8034 which has been profanedH2490 among the nationsH1471, whichH834 you have profanedH2490 in their midstH8432. Then the 7nationsH1471 will knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, “when I proveH6942 Myself holyH6942 among you in their sightH5869.
