Ezekiel 20:11-13
Contemporary English Version
11 (A) I gave them my laws and teachings, so they would know how to live right. 12 (B) And I commanded them to respect the Sabbath as a way of showing that they were holy and belonged to me. 13 But the Israelites rebelled against me in the desert. They refused to obey my laws and teachings, and they treated the Sabbath like any other day.
Then in my anger, I decided to destroy the Israelites in the desert once and for all.
