“that I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.”’”

Reading this verse in context

This page shows one verse on its own, which is rarely how it was written. Ezekiel 14 contains 23 verses, and the sentences either side usually decide what this one means. Read the whole chapter before you quote it.
