By my life, says the Lord, you will get no directions from me. | `Son of man, speak with the elders of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: To seek Me are ye coming in? I live I am not sought by you an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah. | Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Are ye come to inquire of me?

| Ezekiel 20:5 | And say to them, This is what the Lord has said: In the day when I took Israel for myself, when I made an oath to the seed of the family of Jacob, and I gave them knowledge of myself in the land of Egypt, saying to them with an oath, I am the Lord your God; | and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the day of My fixing on Israel, I lift up My hand, To the seed of the house of Jacob, And am known to them in the land of Egypt, And I lift up My hand to them, Saying, I [am] Jehovah your God. | And say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand to the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up my hand to them, saying, I am the LORD your God; |
| Ezekiel 20:6 | In that day I gave my oath to take them out of the land of Egypt into a land which I had been searching out for them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the glory of all lands: | In that day I did lift up My hand to them, To bring them forth from the land of Egypt, Unto a land that I spied out for them, Flowing with milk and honey, A beauty it [is] to all the lands, | In the day that I lifted up my hand to them, to bring them forth from the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands: |
| Ezekiel 20:7 | And I said to them, Let every man among you put away the disgusting things to which his eyes are turned, and do not make yourselves unclean with the images of Egypt; I am the Lord your God. | And I say unto them, Let each cast away the detestable things of his eyes, And with the idols of Egypt be not defiled, I [am] Jehovah your God. | Then said I to them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the LORD your God. |
| Ezekiel 20:8 | But they would not be controlled by me, and did not give ear to me; they did not put away the disgusting things to which their eyes were turned, or give up the images of Egypt: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the land of Egypt. | And they rebel against Me, And have not been willing to hearken to Me, Each, the detestable things of their eyes, They have not cast away, And the idols of Egypt have not forsaken, And I say to pour out My fury on them, To complete Mine anger against them, In the midst of the land of Egypt. | But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken to me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt. |
| Ezekiel 20:9 | And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean before the eyes of the nations among whom they were, and before whose eyes I gave them knowledge of myself, by taking them out of the land of Egypt. | And I do [it] for My name`s sake, Not to pollute [it] before the eyes of the nations, In whose midst they [are], Before whose eyes I became known to them, To bring them out from the land of Egypt. | But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned before the heathen, among whom they were, in whose sight I made myself known to them, in bringing them forth from the land of Egypt. |
| Ezekiel 20:10 | So I made them go out of the land of Egypt and took them into the waste land. | And I bring them out of the land of Egypt, And I bring them in unto the wilderness, | Wherefore I caused them to go forth from the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness. |
| Ezekiel 20:11 | And I gave them my rules and made clear to them my orders, which, if a man keeps them, will be life to him. | And I give to them My statutes, And my judgments I caused them to know, Which the man who doth liveth by them. | And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my judgments, which if a man doeth, he shall even live in them. |
| Ezekiel 20:12 | And further, I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, so that it might be clear that I, who make them holy, am the Lord. | And also My sabbaths I have given to them, To be for a sign between Me and them, To know that I [am] Jehovah their sanctifier. | Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them. |
| Ezekiel 20:13 | But the children of Israel would not be controlled by me in the waste land: they were not guided by my rules, and they were turned away from my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said that I would let loose my passion on them in the waste land, and put an end to them. | And rebel against me do the house of Israel in the wilderness, In My statutes they have not walked, And My judgments they have despised, Which the man who doth liveth by them. And My sabbaths they have greatly polluted, And I say to pour out My fury on them in the wilderness, to consume them. | But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man doeth, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly profaned: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them. |
| Ezekiel 20:14 | And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out. | And I do [it] for My name`s sake, Not to pollute [it] before the eyes of the nations, Before whose eyes I brought them forth. | But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out. |
| Ezekiel 20:15 | And further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land, that I would not take them into the land which I had given them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the glory of all lands; | And also, I, I have lifted up My hand to them in the wilderness, Not to bring them in to the land that I had given, Flowing with milk and honey, A beauty it [is] to all the lands, | Yet also I lifted up my hand to them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands; |
| Ezekiel 20:16 | Because they were turned away from my orders, and were not guided by my rules, and had no respect for my Sabbaths: for their hearts went after their images. | Because against My judgments they did kick, And in My statutes they have not walked, And My sabbaths they have polluted, For after their idols their heart is going. | Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but profaned my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols. |
| Ezekiel 20:17 | But still my eye had pity on them and I kept them from destruction and did not put an end to them completely in the waste land. | And Mine eye hath pity on them against destroying them, And I have not made of them an end in the wilderness. | Nevertheless my eye spared them from destroying them, neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness. |
| Ezekiel 20:18 | And I said to their children in the waste land, Do not be guided by the rules of your fathers or keep their orders or make yourselves unclean with their images: | And I say to their sons in the wilderness: In the statutes of your fathers ye walk not, And their judgments ye do not observe, And with their idols ye are not defiled. | But I said to their children in the wilderness, Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols: |
| Ezekiel 20:19 | I am the Lord your God; be guided by my rules and keep my orders and do them: | I [am] Jehovah your God, in My statutes walk, And My judgments observe, and do them, | I am the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; |
| Ezekiel 20:20 | And keep my Sabbaths holy; and they will be a sign between me and you so that it may be clear to you that I am the Lord your God. | And My sabbaths sanctify, And they have been for a sign between Me and you, To know that I, Jehovah, [am] your God. | And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the LORD your God. |
| Ezekiel 20:21 | But the children would not be controlled by me; they were not guided by my rules, and they did not keep and do my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the waste land. | And the sons rebel against Me, In My statutes they have not walked, And My judgments they have not observed to do them, Which the man who doth liveth by them. My sabbaths they have polluted, And I say to pour out My fury upon them, To complete Mine anger against them in the wilderness. | Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which if a man doeth, he shall even live in them: they profaned my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness. |
| Ezekiel 20:22 | And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out. | And I have turned back My hand, And I do [it] for My name`s sake, Not to pollute [it] before the eyes of the nations, Before whose eyes I brought them out. | Nevertheless I withdrew my hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the heathen, in whose sight I brought them forth. |
| Ezekiel 20:23 | Further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land that I would send them wandering among the nations, driving them out among the countries; | I also, I have lifted up My hand to them in the wilderness, To scatter them among nations, And to spread them through lands. | I lifted up my hand to them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries; |
| Ezekiel 20:24 | Because they had not done my orders, but had been turned away from my rules, and had not given respect to my Sabbaths, and their eyes were turned to the images of their fathers. | Because My judgments they have not done, And My statutes they have despised, And My sabbaths they have polluted, And after idols of their fathers have their eyes been. | Because they had not executed my judgments, but had despised my statutes, and had profaned my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols. |
| Ezekiel 20:25 | And further, I gave them rules which were not good and orders in which there was no life for them; | And I also, I have given to them statutes not good, And judgments by which they do not live. | Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments by which they should not live; |
| Ezekiel 20:26 | I made them unclean in the offerings they gave, causing them to make every first child go through the fire, so that I might put an end to them. | And I defile them by their own gifts, By causing to pass away every opener of a womb, So that I make them desolate, So that they know that I [am] Jehovah. | And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all the first-born, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am the LORD. |
| Ezekiel 20:27 | For this cause, son of man, say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: In this your fathers have further put shame on my name by doing wrong against me. | Therefore, speak unto the house of Israel, son of man, and thou hast said unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Still in this have your fathers reviled Me, In their committing against Me a trespass. | Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me. |
| Ezekiel 20:28 | For when I had taken them into the land which I made an oath to give to them, then they saw every high hill and every branching tree and made their offerings there, moving me to wrath by their offerings; and there the sweet smell of their offerings went up and their drink offerings were drained out. | And I bring them in unto the land, That I did lift up My hand to give to them, And they see every high hill, and every thick tree, And they sacrifice there their sacrifices, And give there the provocation of their offering, And make there their sweet fragrance, And they pour out there their libations. | For when I had brought them into the land, for which I lifted up my hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savor, and poured out there their drink-offerings. |
| Ezekiel 20:29 | Then I said to them, What is this high place where you go to no purpose? And it is named Bamah to this day. | And I say unto them: What [is] the high place whither ye are going in?

| Ezekiel 20:30 | For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Are you making yourselves unclean as your fathers did? are you being untrue to me by going after their disgusting works? | Therefore, say unto the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In the way of your fathers are ye defiled? And after their detestable things go a-whoring? | Wherefore say to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye lewd deeds after their abominations? |
| Ezekiel 20:31 | And when you give your offerings, causing your sons to go through the fire, you make yourselves unclean with all your images to this day; and will you come to me for directions, O children of Israel? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no direction from me. | And in the offering of your gifts, In causing your sons to pass through fire, Ye are defiled by all your idols to this day, And I am sought by you, O house of Israel! I live an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, I am not sought by you. | For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even to this day: and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you. |
| Ezekiel 20:32 | And that which comes into your minds will never take place; when you say, We will be like the nations, like the families of the countries, servants of wood and stone; | And that which is going up on your mind, It is not at all in that ye are saying: We will be as the nations, as the families of the lands, To serve wood and stone. | And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all, that ye say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone. |
