Chapter 37

1


 

  The hand of Yahweh was on me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of Yahweh, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.  

 

 

-

2


 

  He caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, behold, they were very dry.  

 

 

-

3


 

  He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? I answered, Lord Yahweh, you know.  

 

 

-

4


 

  Again he said to me, Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, you dry bones, hear the word of Yahweh.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Thus says the Lord Yahweh to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.  

 

 

-

6


 

  I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.  

 

 

-

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.  

 

 

-

8


 

  I saw, and, behold, there were sinews on them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath in them.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Then said he to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and tell the wind, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Come from the four winds, breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.  

 

 

-

10


 

  So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an exceeding great army.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Then he said to 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.  

 

 

-

12


 

  Therefore prophesy, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.  

 

 

-

13


 

  You shall know that I am Yahweh, when I have opened your graves, and caused you to come up out of your graves, my people.  

 

 

-

14


 

  I will put my Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land: and you shall know that I, Yahweh, have spoken it and performed it, says Yahweh.  

 

 

-

15


 

  The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,  

 

 

-

16


 

  You, son of man, take one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:  

 

 

-

17


 

  and join them for you one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.  

 

 

-

18


 

  When the children of your people shall speak to you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these?  

 

 

-

19


 

  tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: 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.  

 

 

-

20


 

  The sticks whereon you write shall be in your hand before their eyes.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Say to them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, where they are gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:  

 

 

-

22


 

  and I will make them one nation in the land, on 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;  

 

 

-

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, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.  

 

 

-

24


 

  My servant David shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my ordinances, and observe my statutes, and do them.  

 

 

-

25


 

  They shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers lived; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, forever: and David my servant shall be their prince for ever.  

 

 

-

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 forevermore.  

 

 

-

27


 

  My tent also shall be with them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.  

 

 

-

28


 

  The nations shall know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them forevermore.
