Ezekiel 20:40-44

Living Bible

⁴⁰ “For at Jerusalem in my holy mountain,” says the Lord, “all Israel shall worship me. There I will accept you and require you to bring me your offerings and the finest of your gifts. ⁴¹ You will be to me as an offering of perfumed incense when I bring you back from exile, and the nations will see the great change in your hearts. ⁴² Then, when I have brought you home to the land I promised your fathers, you will know I am the Lord. ⁴³ Then you will look back at all your sins and loathe yourselves because of the evil you have done. ⁴⁴ And when I have honored my name by blessing you despite your wickedness, then, O Israel, you will know I am the Lord.”
