Ezekiel 20:12-14

Revised Geneva Translation

¹² “Moreover, I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign between Me and them, so that they might know that I am the LORD Who sanctifies them.

¹³ “But the House of Israel rebelled against Me in the wilderness. They did not walk in My Statutes. And they cast away My Judgments, which if a man does, he shall live in them. And they have greatly profaned My Sabbaths. Then I thought to pour out My indignation upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.

¹⁴ “But I acted for the sake of My Name, so that it would not be profaned before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.
