Ezekiel 20:27-29

New English Translation

²⁷ “Therefore, speak to the house of Israel, son of man, and tell them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: In this way too your fathers blasphemed me when they were unfaithful to me. ²⁸ I brought them to the land that I swore^[a] to give them, but whenever they saw any high hill or leafy tree, they offered their sacrifices there and presented the offerings that provoked me to anger. They offered their soothing aroma there and poured out their drink offerings. ²⁹ So I said to them, “What is this high place you go to?”’ (So it is called “High Place”^[b] to this day.)
