Ezekiel 20:28-30
Christian Standard Bible
28 When I brought them into the land that I swore to give them and they saw any high hill or leafy tree,(A) they offered their sacrifices and presented their offensive offerings there. They also sent up their pleasing aromas and poured out their drink offerings there. 29 So I asked them, “What is this high place you are going to?” And it is still called Bamah[a] today.’
30 “Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘This is what the Lord God says: Are you defiling yourselves the way your ancestors did,(B) and prostituting yourselves with their abhorrent things?
