Yet I would not do it, for my name's sake: lest it should be dishonored before the Heathen, from the which I had carried them away.

Nevertheless, I withdrew my hand for my name's sake, lest it should be unhallowed among the Heathen, before whom I had brought them forth.

Yea, they shall be the smallest among the other kingdoms, lest they exalt themselves above the Heathen, for I will so diminish them,

He said to me, “This is the place where the priests shall boil (cook) the guilt offering and the sin offering, and where they shall bake the grain offering, so that they do not bring them out into the outer courtyard to transmit holiness to the people.”

Of this portion they shall sell nothing, nor make any permutation there of, lest the chief of the land fall unto other, for it is hallowed unto the LORD.
