11 aAnd I gave them My statutes and1 showed them My judgments, b‘which, if a man does, he shall live by them.’
12 Moreover I also gave them My aSabbaths, to be a sign between them and Me, that they might know that I am the Lord who sanctifies them.
13 Yet the house of Israel arebelled against Me in the wilderness; they did not walk in My statutes; they bdespised My judgments, c‘which, if a man does, he shall live by them’; and they greatly ddefiled My Sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out My fury on them in the ewilderness, to consume them.
14 aBut I acted for My name’s sake, that it should not be profaned before the Gentiles, in whose sight I had brought them out.
15 So aI also raised My hand in an oath to them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, b‘flowing with milk and honey,’ cthe glory of all lands,
16 abecause they despised My judgments and did not walk in My statutes, but profaned My Sabbaths; for btheir heart went after their idols.
17 aNevertheless My eye spared them from destruction. I did not make an end of them in the wilderness.
18 “But I said to their children in the wilderness, ‘Do not walk in the statutes of your fathers, nor observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols.
19 I am the Lord your God: aWalk in My statutes, keep My judgments, and do them;
20 ahallow My Sabbaths, and they will be a sign between Me and you, that you may know that I am the Lord your God.’
