Ezekiel 20:25-27
The Voice
25 I handed them over to bad laws and rules that could not lead to life. 26 I declared them ritually impure because they were giving every firstborn child as a burnt sacrifice to pagan gods. I did this to horrify them, so that they would know I am the Eternal One.
27 Therefore, son of man, confront the people of Israel and tell them the Eternal Lord says, “Your fathers showed their contempt for Me and betrayed Me.
Ezekiel 20:25-27
New International Version
25 So I gave(A) them other statutes that were not good and laws through which they could not live;(B) 26 I defiled them through their gifts—the sacrifice(C) of every firstborn—that I might fill them with horror so they would know that I am the Lord.(D)’
27 “Therefore, son of man, speak to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: In this also your ancestors(E) blasphemed(F) me by being unfaithful to me:(G)
