As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord GOD; Go ye, serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter also, if ye will not hearken unto me: but pollute ye my holy name no more with your gifts, and with your idols.

Verse 39 is found in chapter 20 of Ezekiel. God announces that he will gather and judge the people like a shepherd separating and examining his flock. Exile does not eliminate God’s relationship with Israel but introduces purification through judgment. The rebels will not be able to hide within the community.

Darum, ihr vom Hause Israel, so spricht der Herr, HERR: Weil ihr denn mir ja nicht wollt gehorchen, so fahrt hin und diene ein jeglicher seinen Götzen; aber meinen heiligen Namen laßt hinfort ungeschändet mit euren Opfern und Götzen.
Y vosotros, oh casa de Israel, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Andad cada uno tras sus ídolos, y servidles, pues que a mí no me obedecéis; y no profanéis más mi santo nombre con vuestras ofrendas, y con vuestros ídolos.
En cuanto a ustedes, casa de Israel, así dice el Señor Jehová: Vayan, cada uno a servir a sus ídolos, también en adelante, si no me escuchan. Pero no profanen más mi santo nombre con sus ofrendas y sus ídolos.
Et vous, maison d'Israël, ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Eternel: Allez chacun servir vos idoles! Mais après cela, vous m'écouterez, et vous ne profanerez plus mon saint nom par vos offrandes et par vos idoles.
Voi dunque, o casa d’Israele, così ha detto il Signore Iddio: Andate, servite ciascuno a’ vostri idoli; sì, poscia che voi non mi volete ascoltare; e non profanate più il mio santo Nome con le vostre offerte, e co’ vostri idoli.
Quanto a vós, ó casa de Israel, assim diz o Senhor DEUS; Ide, sirva cada um os seus ídolos, pois que a mim não me quereis ouvir; mas não profaneis mais o meu santo nome com as vossas dádivas e com os vossos ídolos.
「你們, 以色列 家啊,主耶和華如此說:你們若不聽從我,從今以後就讓各人去事奉他的偶像吧,只是不可再以你們的供物和偶像褻瀆我的聖名。
