Ezekiel 36:16-21
New King James Version
The Renewal of Israel
16 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 17 “Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, (A)they defiled it by their own ways and deeds; to Me their way was like (B)the uncleanness of a woman in her customary impurity. 18 Therefore I poured out My fury on them (C)for the blood they had shed on the land, and for their idols with which they had defiled it. 19 So I (D)scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughout the countries; I judged them (E)according to their ways and their deeds. 20 When they came to the nations, wherever they went, they (F)profaned My holy name—when they said of them, ‘These are the people of the Lord, and yet they have gone out of His land.’ 21 But I had concern (G)for My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations wherever they went.

Ezekiel 36:16-21
American Standard Version
16 Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, 17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their way and by their doings: their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity. 18 Wherefore I poured out my wrath upon them for the blood which they had poured out upon the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols; 19 and I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them. 20 And when they came unto the nations, whither they went, they profaned my holy name; in that men said of them, These are the people of Jehovah, and are gone forth out of his land. 21 But I had regard for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, whither they went.
