Ezekiel 20:19-21

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁹ I the Lord am your God; follow my statutes, be careful to observe my ordinances,^{(A) 20} and hallow my Sabbaths that they may be a sign between me and you, so that you may know that I the Lord am your God.” ²¹ But the children rebelled against me; they did not follow my statutes and were not careful to observe my ordinances, by whose observance everyone shall live; they profaned my Sabbaths.

Then I thought I would pour out my wrath upon them and spend my anger against them in the wilderness.^(B)
