But the house of Israel rebelled against Me in the wilderness. They did not walk in My statutes, and they despised My judgments, which if a man does them even he will live by them. And they greatly profaned My sabbaths. And I said, I will pour out My fury on them in the wilderness, to finish them.
And I also lifted up My hand to them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, flowing with milk and honey; it is the glory to all the lands,
But I turned back My hand and worked for My name’s sake, that it should not be profaned in the eyes of the nations, from whom I brought them out in their eyes.
But I worked for My name’s sake, that it should not be profaned in the eyes of the nations of whom they were among them, of whom I made Myself known to them in their eyes, by bringing them out of the land of Egypt.
And I will make My holy name known in the midst of My people Israel. And I will not let My holy name be profaned any more. And the nations shall know that I am Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel.
