Ezekiel 23:37-39

New International Reader's Version

³⁷ They have committed adultery. Their hands are covered with the blood of the people they have murdered. They have worshiped other gods. They have not been faithful to me. They have even sacrificed their children as food to other gods. Those children belonged to me. ³⁸ Here are some other things the sisters have done to me. They have made my temple ‘unclean.’ They have misused my Sabbath days. ³⁹ They have sacrificed their children to their gods. On that same day they entered my temple and made it ‘unclean.’ That is what they have done in my house.
