New Testament

Ezekiel 36:19-23 Modern English Version (MEV)

19. And I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughout the countries. According to their ways and according to their deeds, I judged them.

20. When they entered the nations, where they went, they profaned My holy name, because they said of them, “These are the people of the Lord and have gone out of His land.”

21. But I had pity for My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations where they went.

22. Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy name’s sake which you have profaned among the nations where you went.

23. I will vindicate the sanctity of My great name which was profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst. Then the nations shall know that I am the Lord, says the Lord God, when I shall be sanctified among you before their eyes.
