EZE-37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in
the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the
valley which [was] full of bones,
EZE-37:2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold,
[there were] very many in the open valley; and, lo, [they were]
very dry.
EZE-37:3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live?
And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
EZE-37:4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and
say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
EZE-37:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I
will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
EZE-37:6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh
upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye
shall live; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
EZE-37:7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied,
there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came
together, bone to his bone.
EZE-37:8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up
upon them, and the skin covered them above: but [there was] no
breath in them.
EZE-37:9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy,
son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come
from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain,
that they may live.
EZE-37:10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath
came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an
exceeding great army.
EZE-37:11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the
whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried,
and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
EZE-37:12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the
Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and
cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the
land of Israel.
EZE-37:13 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have
opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your
graves,
EZE-37:14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and
I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I
the LORD have spoken [it], and performed [it], saith the LORD.
EZE-37:15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
EZE-37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and
write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his
companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For
Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel
his companions:
EZE-37:17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they
shall become one in thine hand.
EZE-37:18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto
thee, saying, Wilt thou not show us what thou [meanest] by these?
EZE-37:19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will
take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and
the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him,
[even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and
they shall be one in mine hand.
EZE-37:20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine
hand before their eyes.
EZE-37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither
they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them
into their own land:
EZE-37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the
mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and
they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided
into two kingdoms any more at all:
EZE-37:23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with
their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of
their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their
dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them:
so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
EZE-37:24 And David my servant [shall be] king over them; and
they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my
judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
EZE-37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given
unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they
shall dwell therein, [even] they, and their children, and their
children's children for ever: and my servant David [shall be]
their prince for ever.
EZE-37:26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it
shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place
them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst
of them for evermore.
EZE-37:27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be
their God, and they shall be my people.
EZE-37:28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify
Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for
evermore.
