Ezekiel 20:24 in Context — Ezekiel 20

22 Néanmoins j’ai retiré ma main, et j’ai agi par égard pour mon nom, afin qu’il ne fût pas profané aux yeux des nations en présence desquelles je les avais fait sortir d’Égypte.

23 Dans le désert, je levai encore ma main vers eux, pour les disperser parmi les nations et les répandre en divers pays,

24 parce qu’ils ne mirent pas en pratique mes ordonnances, parce qu’ils rejetèrent mes préceptes, profanèrent mes sabbats, et tournèrent leurs yeux vers les idoles de leurs pères.

25 Je leur donnai aussi des préceptes qui n’étaient pas bons, et des ordonnances par lesquelles ils ne pouvaient vivre.

26 Je les souillai par leurs offrandes, quand ils faisaient passer par le feu tous leurs premiers-nés; je voulus ainsi les punir, et leur faire connaître que je suis l’Éternel.
