← Ezekiel 20:28	Ezekiel 20:29 (KJV)	Ezekiel 20:30 →
[For] when I had brought them into the land, [for] the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.	Then I said unto them, What [is] the high place whereunto ye go? And the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day.	Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye whoredom after their abominations?
