37 “I will make you apass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the bcovenant;
38 aI will purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me; I will bring them out of the country where they dwell, but bthey shall not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
39 “As for you, O house of Israel,” thus says the Lord God: a“Go, serve every one of you his idols—and hereafter—if you will not obey Me; bbut profane My holy name no more with your gifts and your idols.
40 For aon My holy mountain, on the mountain height of Israel,” says the Lord God, “there ball the house of Israel, all of them in the land, shall serve Me; there cI will accept them, and there I will require your offerings and the firstfruits of your1 sacrifices, together with all your holy things.
41 I will accept you as a asweet aroma when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered; and I will be hallowed in you before the Gentiles.
42 aThen you shall know that I am the Lord, bwhen I bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for which I raised My hand in an oath to give to your fathers.
43 And athere you shall remember your ways and all your doings with which you were defiled; and byou shall loathe yourselves in your own sight because of all the evils that you have committed.
