Ezekiel 44:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
7 in admitting foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, to be in my sanctuary, profaning my temple when you offer to me my food, the fat and the blood. You[a] have broken my covenant with all your abominations. 8 And you have not kept charge of my sacred offerings; but you have appointed foreigners[b] to act for you in keeping my charge in my sanctuary.
9 Thus says the Lord God: No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, of all the foreigners who are among the people of Israel, shall enter my sanctuary.

Ezekiel 44:7-9
New International Version
7 In addition to all your other detestable practices, you brought foreigners uncircumcised in heart(A) and flesh into my sanctuary, desecrating my temple while you offered me food, fat and blood, and you broke my covenant.(B) 8 Instead of carrying out your duty in regard to my holy things, you put others in charge of my sanctuary.(C) 9 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: No foreigner uncircumcised in heart and flesh is to enter my sanctuary, not even the foreigners who live among the Israelites.(D)
