Ezekiel 20:27-29

Expanded Bible

²⁷ “So, ·human [^Tson of man; 2:1], speak to the ·people [^Lhouse] of Israel. Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: Your ·ancestors [fathers] ·spoke against [blasphemed] me by being unfaithful to me in another way. ²⁸ When I had brought them into the land I ·promised [^Llifted my hand] to give them, they saw every high hill and every leafy tree. There they offered their sacrifices to gods. They brought offerings that ·made me angry [provoked my anger] and burned their incense and poured out their drink offerings. ²⁹ Then I said to them: What is this high place where you go to worship?’” (It is still called ·High Place [^LBamah] today.)
