Yahweh’s Name Profaned Among the Nations
16 Then the word of Yahweh came to me saying, 17 “Son of man, when the house of Israel was living in their own land, they (A)defiled it by their ways and their deeds; their way before Me was like (B)the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity. 18 Therefore I (C)poured out My wrath on them for the blood which they had shed on the land, because they had defiled it with their idols. 19 Also I (D)scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughout the lands. (E)According to their ways and their deeds I judged them. 20 Then they came to the nations to which they came. And they (F)profaned My holy name because it was said of them, ‘These are the (G)people of Yahweh; yet they have come out of His land.’ 21 But I [a]had concern for My (H)holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations where they went.

New International Version
Israel’s Restoration Assured
16 Again the word of the Lord came to me: 17 “Son of man, when the people of Israel were living in their own land, they defiled it by their conduct and their actions. Their conduct was like a woman’s monthly uncleanness(A) in my sight.(B) 18 So I poured out(C) my wrath on them because they had shed blood in the land and because they had defiled it with their idols. 19 I dispersed them among the nations, and they were scattered(D) through the countries; I judged them according to their conduct and their actions.(E) 20 And wherever they went among the nations they profaned(F) my holy name, for it was said of them, ‘These are the Lord’s people, and yet they had to leave his land.’(G) 21 I had concern for my holy name, which the people of Israel profaned among the nations where they had gone.(H)
