Ezekiel 20:9-11

Modern English Version

⁹ But I acted for My name’s sake, that it should not be polluted before the nations among whom they were, in whose sight I made Myself known to them in bringing them out of the land of Egypt. ¹⁰ Therefore I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt and brought them into the wilderness. ¹¹ I gave them My statutes and showed them My judgments, which if a man does them, he shall live.
