Ezekiel 20:6-8
New American Standard Bible
6 on that day I swore to them, (A)to bring them out from the land of Egypt into a land that I had [a]selected for them, (B)flowing with milk and honey, which is (C)the glory of all the lands. 7 And I said to them, ‘(D)Throw away, each of you, the detestable things of his eyes, and (E)do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; (F)I am the Lord your God.’ 8 But they (G)rebelled against Me and were not willing to listen to Me; they did not throw away, each of them, the detestable things of their eyes, nor did they abandon the (H)idols of Egypt.
“Then I [b]resolved to (I)pour out My wrath on them, to [c]use up My anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.

New International Version
6 On that day I swore(A) to them that I would bring them out of Egypt into a land I had searched out for them, a land flowing with milk and honey,(B) the most beautiful of all lands.(C) 7 And I said to them, “Each of you, get rid of the vile images(D) you have set your eyes on, and do not defile yourselves with the idols(E) of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.(F)”
8 “‘But they rebelled against me and would not listen to me;(G) they did not get rid of the vile images they had set their eyes on, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt.(H) So I said I would pour out my wrath on them and spend my anger against them in Egypt.(I)
