Ezekiel 14:6-8

New Century Version

⁶ “So say to the people of Israel, ‘This is what the Lord God says: Change your hearts and lives, and stop worshiping idols. Stop doing all the things I hate. ⁷ Any of the Israelites or foreigners in Israel can separate themselves from me by wanting to worship idols or by putting up the things that cause people to sin. Then if they come to the prophet to ask me questions, I, the Lord, will answer them myself. ⁸ I will reject them. I will make them a sign and an example, and I will separate them from my people. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
