Ezekiel 20:26-31
26and I pronouncedH2930 them 1uncleanH2930 because of their giftsH4979, in that they 2made allH3605 3their firstbornH1060H7358 passH5674 throughH5674 the fire soH4616 thatH4616 I might makeH8074 them desolateH8074, inH4616 orderH4616 thatH4616 they might 4knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068.”’
27“ThereforeH3651 5speakH1696 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, sonH1121 of manH120, and sayH559 to them, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “AgainH5750, in thisH2088 your fathersH1 have 6blasphemedH1442 Me by 7beingH4603 disloyalH4603 to Me. 28When I had 8broughtH935 them into the landH776 whichH834 I sworeH5375H3027 to giveH5414 to them, then they sawH7200 everyH3605 9highH7311 hillH1389 and everyH3605 treeH6086 thickH5687 with branchesH5687, and thereH8033 they offeredH2076 their sacrificesH2077 and thereH8033 they presentedH5414 the provocationH3708 of their offeringH7133. ThereH8033 also they madeH7760 their soothingH5207 aromaH7381 and thereH8033 they pouredH5258 outH5258 their drinkH5262 offeringsH5262. 29Then I saidH559 to them, ‘WhatH4100 is the highH1116 placeH1116 to whichH834 you goH935?’ So its nameH8034 is calledH7121 10BamahH1117 to thisH2088 dayH3117.”’ 30ThereforeH3651, sayH559 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “Will you defileH2930 yourselves in the wayH1870 of your 11fathersH1 and adulterouslyH2181 pursueH2181H310 their detestableH8251 thingsH8251? 31And 12when you offerH5375 your giftsH4979, when you 13make your sonsH1121 passH5674 through the fireH784, you are defilingH2930 yourselves with allH3605 your idolsH1544 to this dayH3117. So shall I be inquiredH1875 of by you, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? As I liveH2416,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, “I certainlyH518 will not be inquiredH1875 of by you.
