Ezekiel 20:13-14

13“But the people of Israel rebelled against me, and they refused to obey my decrees there in the wilderness. They wouldn’t obey my regulations even though obedience would have given them life. They also violated my Sabbath days. So I threatened to pour out my fury on them, and I made plans to utterly consume them in the wilderness.

14But again I held back in order to protect the honor of my name before the nations who had seen my power in bringing Israel out of Egypt.
