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.
13
But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the desert. They didn't follow my regulations and rejected my case laws, which bring life to all who observe them. They completely degraded my sabbaths. So I declared that I would pour out my anger against them and destroy them in the desert.
