26:019:014 And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, which hath
           devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod to be a
           sceptre to rule.  This is a lamentation, and shall be for a
           lamentation.

26:020:001 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month,
           the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of
           Israel came to enquire of the lord, and sat before me.

26:020:002 Then came the word of the lord unto me, saying,

26:020:003 Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto
           them, Thus saith the Lord god; Are ye come to enquire of me? 
           As I live, saith the Lord god, I will not be enquired of by
           you.

26:020:004 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge them? cause
           them to know the abominations of their fathers: 

26:020:005 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord god; In the day when I
           chose Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the
           house of Jacob, and made myself known unto them in the land of
           Egypt, when I lifted up mine hand unto them, saying, I am the
           lord your God;

26:020:006 In the day that I lifted up mine hand unto them, to bring them
           forth of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for
           them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all
           lands: 

26:020:007 Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations
           of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of
           Egypt:  I am the lord your God.

26:020:008 But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken unto me: 
           they did not every man cast away the abominations of their
           eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt:  then I
           said, I will pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my
           anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.

26:020:009 But I wrought for my name’s sake, that it should not be
           polluted before the heathen, among whom they were, in whose
           sight I made myself known unto them, in bringing them forth
           out of the land of Egypt.

26:020:010 Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt,
           and brought them into the wilderness.

26:020:011 And I gave them my statutes, and shewed them my judgments,
           which if a man do, he shall even live in them.

26:020:012 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me
           and them, that they might know that I am the lord that
           sanctify them.
