Ezekiel 20:13
Study it in the app“But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness; in my statutes they did not walk, and my rules they rejected, which if a human being does them, he will live by them; and my Sabbaths they profaned greatly. And I said that I would pour out my fury on them in the wilderness to make an end of them.”
