Ezekiel 44:6-10 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

6. “Say to the rebellious people, the house of Israel: This is what the Lord God says: I have had enough of all your detestable practices, house of Israel.

7. When you brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in both heart and flesh, to occupy My sanctuary, you defiled My temple while you offered My food — the fat and the blood. You broke My covenant by all your detestable practices.

8. You have not kept charge of My holy things but have appointed others to keep charge of My sanctuary for you.

9. “This is what the Lord God says: No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, may enter My sanctuary, not even a foreigner who is among the Israelites.

10. Surely the Levites who wandered away from Me when Israel went astray, and who strayed from Me after their idols, will bear the consequences of their sin.
