Ezekiel 36:20

A New Heart and a New Spirit

19I dispersed them among the nations, and they were scattered throughout the lands. I judged them according to their ways and deeds.20And wherever they went among the nations, they profaned My holy name, because it was said of them, ‘These are the people of the LORD, yet they had to leave His land.’21But I had concern for My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations to which they had gone.
