{Ezekiel 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, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 37:3} And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 37:5} Thus saith the Lord GOD 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] the LORD. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{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 GOD; 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, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 37:15} The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 37:17} And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 37:18} And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou [meanest] by these? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 37:20} And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{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 dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{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: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Ezekiel 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.
