26:036:016 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

26:036:017 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was before me as the uncleanness of a removed woman.

26:036:018 Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols wherewith they had polluted it:

26:036:019 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.

26:036:020 And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.

26:036:021 But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.

26:036:022 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.

26:036:023 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.

26:036:024 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.

26:036:025 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
