Ezekiel 20:16 in Context — Ezekiel 20
14 Porém fiz por favor a meu nome, para que não fosse profanado diante dos olhos das nações, diante de cujos olhos os tirei.
15 Contudo eu lhes jurei no deserto de que não os traria para a terra que havia lhes dado, que corre leite e mel, a qual é a mais bela de todas as terras;
16 Porque rejeitaram meus juízos, não andaram em meus estatutos, e profanaram meus sábados; porque seus corações seguiam seus ídolos.
17 Porém meu olho os poupou, não os destruindo, nem os consumindo no deserto;
18 Em vez disso, eu disse a seus filhos no deserto: Não andeis nos estatutos de vossos pais, nem guardeis seus juízos, nem vos contamineis com seus ídolos.
