Ezekiel 44:6-8

Christian Standard Bible

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.’
