Ezekiel 36:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 (A)And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they polluted mine holy Name, when they said of them, These are the people of the Lord, and are gone out of his land.
21 But I favored mine holy [a]Name, which the house of Israel had polluted among the heathen, whither they went.
22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God, I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine [b]holy Name’s sake, which ye polluted among the heathen, whither ye went.
