Ezekiel 20:6-8

New Century Version

⁶ At that time I promised them I would bring them out of Egypt into a land I had found for them, a fertile land, the best land in the world. ⁷ I said to them, “Each one of you must throw away the hateful idols you have seen and liked. Don’t make yourselves unclean with the idols of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.”

⁸ “‘But they turned against me and refused to listen to me. They did not throw away the hateful idols which they saw and liked; they did not give up the idols of Egypt. Then I decided to pour out my anger against them while they were still in Egypt.
