Second Generation's Idolatry and Punishment

18

And I say to their sons in the wilderness: In the statutes of your fathers ye walk not, And their judgments ye do not observe, And with their idols ye are not defiled.

19

I am Jehovah your God, in My statutes walk, And My judgments observe, and do them,

20

And My sabbaths sanctify, And they have been for a sign between Me and you, To know that I, Jehovah, am your God.

21

And--the sons rebel against Me, In My statutes they have not walked, And My judgments they have not observed--to do them, Which the man who doth--liveth by them. My sabbaths they have polluted, And I say to pour out My fury upon them, To complete Mine anger against them in the wilderness.

22

And I have turned back My hand, And I do it for My name's sake, Not to pollute it before the eyes of the nations, Before whose eyes I brought them out.

23

I also, I have lifted up My hand to them in the wilderness, To scatter them among nations, And to spread them through lands.

24

Because My judgments they have not done, And My statutes they have despised, And My sabbaths they have polluted, And after idols of their fathers have their eyes been.

25

And I also, I have given to them statutes not good, And judgments by which they do not live.

26

And I defile them by their own gifts, By causing to pass away every opener of a womb, So that I make them desolate, So that they know that I am Jehovah.
