When you bring foreigners, those uncircumcised in heart and in flesh, into my sanctuary, you desecrate it– even my house– when you offer my food, the fat and the blood. You have broken my covenant by all your abominable practices.

8

You have not kept charge of my holy things, but you have assigned foreigners to keep charge of my sanctuary for you.
