Ezekiel 36:16-23

16Then the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 17“SonH1121 of manH120, when the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 was livingH3427 on their own landH127, they 1defiledH2930 it by their waysH1870 and their deedsH5949; their wayH1870 beforeH6440 Me was like 2the uncleannessH2932 of a woman in her impurityH5079. 18Therefore I 3pouredH8210 outH8210 My wrathH2534 on them for the bloodH1818 whichH834 they had shedH8210 on the landH776, because they had defiledH2930 it with their idolsH1544. 19I also 4scatteredH6327 them among the nationsH1471, and they were dispersedH2219 throughout the landsH776. 5According to their waysH1870 and their deedsH5949 I judgedH8199 them. 20When they cameH935 to the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 they wentH935, they 6profanedH2490 My holyH6944 nameH8034, because it was saidH559 of them, ‘TheseH428 are the 7peopleH5971 of the LordH3068, yet they have leftH3318 His landH776.’ 21But I hadH2550 8concernH2550 for My 9holyH6944 nameH8034, whichH834 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 had profanedH2490 among the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 they wentH935.

22“ThereforeH3651 sayH559 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “It is 10not for your sakeH4616, houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, that I am about to actH6213, but for My holyH6944 nameH8034, whichH834 you have profanedH2490 among the nationsH1471 whereH834H8033 you wentH935. 23And I will 11vindicateH6942 the holinessH6942 of My greatH1419 nameH8034 which has been profanedH2490 among the nationsH1471, whichH834 you have profanedH2490 amongH8432 them. Then the 12nationsH1471 will knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, “when I showH6942 Myself holyH6942 among you in their sightH5869.
