Ezekiel 20:30

Israel’s Rebellion in the Land

29So I asked them: ‘What is this high place to which you go?’ (And to this day it is called Bamah. )30Therefore tell the house of Israel that this is what the Lord GOD says: Will you defile yourselves the way your fathers did, prostituting yourselves with their abominations? 31When you offer your gifts, sacrificing your sons in the fire, you continue to defile yourselves with all your idols to this day. So should I be consulted by you, O house of Israel? As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will not be consulted by you!
