But I acted for the sake of my name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them out.

because they rejected my rules and did not walk in my statutes, and profaned my Sabbaths; for their heart went after their idols.

But I withheld my hand and acted for the sake of my name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them out.
