Ezekiel 20:38-40
Living Bible
38 And the others—the rebels and all those who sin against me—I will purge from among you. They shall not enter Israel, but I will bring them out of the countries where they are in exile. And when that happens, you will know I am the Lord.
39 “O Israel,” the Lord God says: “If you insist on worshiping your idols, go right ahead, but then don’t bring your gifts to me as well! Such desecration of my holy name must stop!
40 “For at Jerusalem in my holy mountain,” says the Lord, “all Israel shall worship me. There I will accept you and require you to bring me your offerings and the finest of your gifts.

38 I will purge(A) you of those who revolt and rebel against me. Although I will bring them out of the land where they are living, yet they will not enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.(B)
39 “‘As for you, people of Israel, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Go and serve your idols,(C) every one of you! But afterward you will surely listen to me and no longer profane my holy name(D) with your gifts and idols.(E) 40 For on my holy mountain, the high mountain of Israel,(F) declares the Sovereign Lord, there in the land all the people of Israel will serve me, and there I will accept them. There I will require your offerings(G) and your choice gifts,[a] along with all your holy sacrifices.(H)
