Ezekiel 20:7-9
International Standard Version
7 Then I told them, ‘Each of you are to abandon your detestable practices.[a] You are not to defile yourselves with Egypt’s idols. I am the Lord your God.’”’”
A Brief History of Israel’s Rebellion
8 “But they rebelled against me and weren’t willing to obey me. None of them abandoned their detestable practices[b] or their Egyptian idols. So I said, ‘I’ll pour out my anger on them, extending my fury in the middle of the land of Egypt.’ 9 I did this so my reputation[c] might not be tarnished among the nations where they were living, among whom I made myself known in their presence when I brought them out of the land of Egypt.
