Ezekiel 37:1
|
|
The hand of Jehovah was upon me, and he brought
me out in the Spirit of Jehovah, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and
it was full of bones. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:2
|
|
And he caused me to pass by them round about:
and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very
dry. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:3
|
|
And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones
live? And I answered, O Lord Jehovah, thou knowest. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:4
|
|
Again
he said unto me, Prophesy over these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones,
hear the word of Jehovah. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:5
|
|
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah unto these bones:
Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 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 Jehovah. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:7
|
|
So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I
prophesied, there was a noise, and, behold, an earthquake; and the bones came
together, bone to its bone. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:8
|
|
And I beheld, and, lo, there were sinews upon
them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath
in them. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:9
|
|
Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind,
prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Come from
the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 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. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 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 up, and our
hope is lost; we are clean cut off. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:12
|
|
Therefore prophesy, and say unto them, Thus
saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come
up out of your graves, O my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:13
|
|
And ye shall know that I am Jehovah, when I
have opened your graves, and caused you to come up out of your graves, O my people. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:14
|
|
And I will put my Spirit in you, and ye shall
live, and I will place you in your own land: and ye shall know that I, Jehovah,
have spoken it and performed it, saith Jehovah. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:15
|
|
The word of Jehovah came again unto me, saying, |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:16
|
|
And 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: |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:17
|
|
and join them for thee one to another into one
stick, that they may become one in thy hand. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:18
|
|
And when the children of thy people shall speak
unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not show us what thou meanest by these? |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:19
|
|
say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah:
Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and
the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them with it, even with the
stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:20
|
|
And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be
in thy hand before their eyes. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:21
|
|
And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah:
Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, whither they
are gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
|
|
|
|
Ezekiel 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; |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 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 dwelling-places, wherein they have sinned,
and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:24
|
|
And my servant David shall be king over them;
and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in mine ordinances,
and observe my statutes, and do them. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:25
|
|
And they shall dwell in the land that I have
given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell
therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, for ever: and
David my servant shall be their prince for ever. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 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. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:27
|
|
My tabernacle also shall be with them; and I
will be their God, and they shall be my people. |
|
|
|
Ezekiel 37:28
|
|
And the nations shall know that I am Jehovah
that sanctifieth Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore. |
