Ezekiel 36:16-18

Living Bible

¹⁶ Then this further word came to me from the Lord:

¹⁷ “Son of dust, when the people of Israel were living in their own country, they defiled it by their evil deeds; to me their worship was as foul as filthy rags.^{[a] 18} They polluted the land with murder and with the worshiping of idols, so I poured out my fury upon them.
