20and make my Sabbaths holy; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that you may know that I am Yahweh your God.
21But the children rebelled against me; they didn`t walk in my statutes, neither kept my ordinances to do them, which if a man do, he shall live in them; they profaned my Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath on them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.
22Nevertheless I withdrew my hand, and worked for my name`s sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them forth.
23Moreover I swore to them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries;
24because they had not executed my ordinances, but had rejected my statutes, and had profaned my Sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers` idols.
25Moreover also I gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances in which they should not live;
26and I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through [the fire] all that opens the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am Yahweh.
