Ezekiel 20:7-9
New Life Version
7 I said to them, ‘Each of you get rid of the sinful things you have looked upon. Do not make yourselves sinful with the false gods of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’ 8 But they turned against Me and would not listen to Me. They did not get rid of the sinful things they had looked upon. And they did not turn away from the false gods of Egypt.
“Then I said that I would be angry with them. I would send My anger against them in the land of Egypt. 9 But I acted for the good of My name. I did what would keep My name clean in the eyes of the nations they lived among, in whose eyes I made Myself known to them by bringing My people out of Egypt.

8 “‘But they rebelled against me and would not listen to me;(D) they did not get rid of the vile images they had set their eyes on, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt.(E) So I said I would pour out my wrath on them and spend my anger against them in Egypt.(F) 9 But for the sake of my name, I brought them out of Egypt.(G) I did it to keep my name from being profaned(H) in the eyes of the nations among whom they lived and in whose sight I had revealed myself to the Israelites.
