Ezekiel 36:19-21

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁹ And I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries; according to their conduct and their [idolatrous] deeds I judged and punished them.

²⁰ And when they came to the nations to which they went, they profaned My holy name in that men said of them, These are the people of the Lord, and yet they had to go forth out of His land.

²¹ But I had regard, concern, and compassion for My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations to which they went.
