ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

And that it was on account of your iniquities and those of your fathers that God enjoined upon you to keep the Sabbath as a sign, as I said before, and laid upon you the other commandments as well; and that He signifies it was for the sake of the nations—so that His name might not be profaned among them—that on this account He let some of you remain alive at all: His very own words are able to furnish you the proof.
They are spoken through Ezekiel thus: 'I am the Lord your God; walk in My statutes, and keep My judgments, and do not mingle yourselves with the practices of Egypt, and hallow My sabbaths, and they shall be a sign between Me and you, that you may know that I am the Lord your God. But you provoked Me, and your children did not walk in My statutes, nor keep My judgments to do them—which a man, doing them, shall live by them—but they profaned My sabbaths.'
'And I said I would pour out My fury upon them in the wilderness, to spend My anger upon them; yet I did not do it, that My name might not be wholly profaned before the nations, and I led them out before their eyes. And I lifted up My hand against them in the wilderness, to scatter them among the nations and disperse them through the lands, because they did not perform My judgments, and rejected My statutes, and profaned My sabbaths, and their eyes were after the imaginations of their fathers.'
'And I also gave them statutes that were not good, and judgments by which they should not live; and I defiled them in their own gifts, in that I caused to pass through the fire all that opens the womb, that I might make them desolate.'
