Ezekiel 20:20-22

New Living Translation

²⁰ and keep my Sabbath days holy, for they are a sign to remind you that I am the Lord your God.’

²¹ “But their children, too, rebelled against me. They refused to keep my decrees and follow my regulations, even though obedience would have given them life. And they also violated my Sabbath days. So again I threatened to pour out my fury on them in the wilderness. ²² Nevertheless, I withdrew my judgment against them to protect the honor of my name before the nations that had seen my power in bringing them out of Egypt.
