Ezekiel 20:24-26

New Catholic Bible

²⁴ because they had rejected my laws and profaned my Sabbaths and had regard only for the idols of their ancestors. ²⁵ Furthermore, I imposed on them statutes that were not good and ordinances by which they could never live. ²⁶ I also defiled them through their offerings, making them sacrifice their firstborn son, in order to fill them with revulsion. Thus they would know that I am the Lord.
