Ezekiel 36:21-23

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ But I had concern for my holy name, which the house of Israel caused to be profaned among the nations to which they came.

²² “Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations to which you came. ²³ And I will vindicate the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, and which you have profaned among them; and the nations will know that I am the Lord, says the Lord God, when through you I vindicate my holiness before their eyes.
