Ezekiel 20:9-12 Common English Bible (CEB)

9. But I acted for my name’s sake, so that it wouldn’t be degraded in the sight of the nations among whom they lived, and in whose sight I made it known that I would lead them out of the land of Egypt.

10. So I led them out of the land of Egypt and brought them into the desert.

11. I gave them my regulations and made known to them my case laws, which bring life to all who observe them.

12. I also gave them my sabbaths as a sign between us that I, the Lord, have set them apart for my purpose.
