The Levites’ Duties and Privileges
6 “Say to the rebellious people,(A) the house of Israel, ‘This is what the Lord God says: I have had enough(B) of all your detestable practices, house of Israel. 7 When you brought in foreigners,(C) uncircumcised in both heart and flesh,(D) to occupy my sanctuary, you defiled my temple while you offered my food—the fat and the blood. You[a] broke my covenant by all your detestable practices. 8 You have not kept charge of my holy things(E) but have appointed others to keep charge of my sanctuary for you.’

6 And thou shalt say to the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,
7 In that ye have brought into my sanctuary strangers, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant because of all your abominations.
8 And ye have not kept the charge of mine holy things: but ye have set keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.
