Ezekiel 20:19-21

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁹ I am the Lord. I am your God. Obey my laws and keep my commands. Do the things I tell you. ²⁰ Show that my days of rest are important to you. Remember, they are a special sign between us. I am the Lord, and these days show you that I am your God.”

²¹ “‘But the children turned against me and did not obey my laws. They did not keep my commands—even though people who obey my laws live because of them. They treated my special days of rest as though they were not important. So I decided to destroy them completely in the desert—to let them feel the full force of my anger.
