Ezekiel 20:10-19 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

10. So I caused them to go out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.

11. I gave them my statutes, and showed them my ordinances, which if a man does, he will live in them.

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 who sanctifies them.

13. “‘“But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness. They didn’t walk in my statutes, and they rejected my ordinances, which if a man keeps, he shall live in them. They greatly profaned my Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath on them in the wilderness, to consume them.

14. But I worked for my name’s sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them out.

15. Moreover also I swore to 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;

16. because they rejected my ordinances, and didn’t walk in my statutes, and profaned my Sabbaths; for their heart went after their idols.

17. Nevertheless my eye spared them, and I didn’t destroy them. I didn’t make a full end of them in the wilderness.

18. I said to their children in the wilderness, ‘Don’t walk in the statutes of your fathers. Don’t observe their ordinances or defile yourselves with their idols.

19. I am the Lord your God. Walk in my statutes, keep my ordinances, and do them.
