EZE-20:1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth
[month], the
tenth [day] of the month, [that] certain of the elders of Israel
came to
inquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
EZE-20:2 Then came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,
EZE-20:3 Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say
unto them, Thus
saith the Lord GOD; Are ye come to inquire of me? [As] I live,
saith the Lord
GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.
EZE-20:4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge
[them]? cause them
to know the abominations of their fathers:
EZE-20:5 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day
when I chose
Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of
Jacob, and made
myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up
mine hand unto
them, saying, I [am] the LORD your God;
EZE-20:6 In the day [that] I lifted up mine hand unto them, to
bring them
forth of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for
them, flowing
with milk and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands:
EZE-20:7 Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the
abominations of
his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I
[am] the LORD
your God.
EZE-20:8 But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken
unto me: they
did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes,
neither did they
forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury
upon them, to
accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of
Egypt.
EZE-20:9 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not
be polluted
before the heathen, among whom they [were], in whose sight I
made myself known
unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
EZE-20:10 Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land
of Egypt, and
brought them into the wilderness.
EZE-20:11 And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my
judgments, which
[if] a man do, he shall even live in them.
EZE-20:12 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign
between me and
them, that they might know that I [am] the LORD that sanctify
them.
EZE-20:13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the
wilderness: they
walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which
[if] a man
do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly
polluted: then I
said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to
consume them.
EZE-20:14 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not
be polluted
before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.
EZE-20:15 Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the
wilderness, that I
would not bring them into the land which I had given [them],
flowing with milk
and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands;
EZE-20:16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in
my statutes,
but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
EZE-20:17 Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying
them, neither did
I make an end of them in the wilderness.
EZE-20:18 But I said unto their children in the wilderness,
Walk ye not in
