Ezekiel20:31

31 For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, ye pollute your selves with all your idols even unto this day: and shall I be enquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will not be enquired of by you.

See verse 26.

It seems they took a compendious way to increase sin, and wrath; they worshipt many Idols at once; and

This they did still to Ezekiel's time, to that very day.

Are you fit to come, and ask councel of me, whom you have so shamelesly, so obstinately forsaken and reproacht? Can you expect, I should answer you? My Prophet knew you not to be Hypocrites, but his God, who knows you, and all your abominations, hath put the answer into his mouth, which you must be content with. I will answer you as little as you regard me. So God refuseth them.
