Ezekiel 20:5-9

5and sayH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith the LordH3068 GODH430: In the dayH3117 when I choseH977 IsraelH3478, and liftedH5375 upH5375 mine handH3027 unto the seedH2233 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and madeH3045 myselfH589 knownH3045 unto them in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, when I liftedH5375 upH5375 mine handH3027 unto them, SayingH559, I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430;

6in that dayH3117 I liftedH5375 upH5375 mine handH3027 unto them, to bringH3318 them forthH3318 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 intoH413 a landH776 that I had espied for them, flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, whichH834 is the glory of allH3605 landsH776:

7And I saidH559 unto them, CastH7993 ye awayH7993 everyH376 manH376 the abominationsH8251 of his eyesH5869, and defileH2930 notH408 yourselves with the idolsH1544 of EgyptH4714; I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

8But they rebelledH4784 againstH5921 meH413, and would notH3808 hearken unto meH413; they didH3808 notH3808 everyH376 manH376 castH7993 awayH7993 the abominationsH8251 of their eyesH5869, neitherH3808 didH3808 they forsakeH5800 the idolsH1544 of EgyptH4714: then I saidH559 I would pourH8210 outH8210 my furyH2534 uponH5921 them, to accomplishH3615 my angerH639 againstH5921 them in the midstH8432 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

9But I wrought for my name’sH8034 sakeH4616, that it should notH1115 be profanedH2490 in the sightH5869 of the nationsH1471, among whomH834 they were, in whoseH834 sightH5869 I madeH6213 myselfH3045 knownH3045 unto them, in bringingH3318 them forthH3318 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
