Ezekiel36:22

22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy names sake , which ye have profaned among the heathen whither ye went.

Which I have done sparing you, and preserving you, and giving you favour in the sight of the Heathen: Nor do I that I am about to do for you, returning you to Iudaea, planting you, increasing you, and establishing you, and making you a blessing, I do not this for your sake, you deserve no such kindness from me.

My infinite Mercy is the spring and fountain, the vindicating my name from all imputation of weakness or unfaithfulness, and the magnifying the glory of my Goodness, Wisdom, Truth and Power, are the reasons, on which I do, what I do for Israel.

Brought under suspicion with the Heathen, who think that the onely and almighty God, should do better for his own and onely people!
