²¹ “You are not to sacrifice any of your children in the fire^[a] to Molech.^(A) Do not profane the name^(B) of your God; I am the Lord.

¹² Do not swear falsely by my name, profaning the name of your God;^(A) I am the Lord.

² “Tell Aaron and his sons to deal respectfully with the holy offerings of the Israelites that they have consecrated to me, so they do not profane my holy name;^(A) I am the Lord.

³² You must not profane my holy name; I must be treated as holy^(A) among the Israelites. I am the Lord who sets you apart,

¹⁶ But you have changed your minds^(A) and profaned my name.^(B) Each has taken back his male and female slaves who had been set free to go wherever they wanted, and you have again forced them to be your slaves.

²⁰ When they came to the nations where they went, they profaned my holy name,^(A) because it was said about them, ‘These are the people of the Lord, yet they had to leave his land in exile.’

⁷ So I will make my holy name known among my people Israel and will no longer allow it to be profaned. Then the nations will know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel.^(A)
