More of Israel’s Rebellion

²¹ “But they rebelled against me. They didn’t live according to my statutes, observe my ordinances, or practice them, by which a person will live. They also kept profaning my Sabbaths. So I said that I was going to pour out my anger on them and in my anger I’m going to bring about a complete end to them in the wilderness. ²² But I withdrew my decision^[a] so my reputation wouldn’t be tarnished among the nations before whose eyes I brought them out.
