< 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,
It was on me [the] hand of Yahweh and he brought out me by [the] spirit of Yahweh and he set down me in [the] middle of the valley and it [was] full bones.
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.
And he made pass by me at them all around - all around and there! many [bones] very [were] on [the] surface of the valley and there! [they were] dry very.
3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.
And he said to me O son of humankind ¿ will they live the bones these and I said O Lord Yahweh you you know.
4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
And he said to me prophesy to the bones these and you will say to them O bones dry hear [the] word of Yahweh.
5 Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh to the bones these here! I [am] about to bring in you breath and you will live.
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.
And I will give to you sinews and I will bring up over you flesh and I will cover over you skin and I will put in you breath and you will live and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
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.
And I prophesied just as I was commanded and it came a sound when prophesied I and there! a rattling and they drew near [the] bones bone to bone its.
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.
And I saw and there! [were] on them sinews and flesh it came up and it covered over them skin from to above and [was] breath there not in them.
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.
And he said to me prophesy to the breath prophesy O son of humankind and you will say to the breath thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh from four winds come O breath and blow on the killed ones these so they may live.
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.
And I prophesied just as he commanded me and it came in them the breath and they lived and they stood on feet their an army great very very.
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.
And he said to me O son of humankind the bones these [are] all [the] house of Israel they there! [they are] saying they have dried up bones our and it has been lost hope our we have been cut off ourselves.
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.
Therefore prophesy and you will say to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here! I [am] about to open graves your and I will bring up you from graves your O people my and I will bring you into [the] land of Israel.
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,
And you will know that I [am] Yahweh when open I graves your and when bring up I you from graves your O people my.
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.
And I will put spirit my in you and you will live and I will set down you on own land your and you will know that I Yahweh I have spoken and I will act [the] utterance of Yahweh.
15 The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
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:
And you O son of humankind take yourself a piece of wood one and write on it for Judah and for [the] people of Israel (associates its *Q(K)*) and take a piece of wood one and write on it for Joseph [the] piece of wood of Ephraim and all [the] house of Israel (associates its. *Q(K)*)
17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
And bring near them one to one yourself into a piece of wood one and they will become one in hand your.
18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?
And just when they will say to you [the] children of people your saying ¿ not will you tell to us what? [are] these [things] to you.
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.
Speak to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here! I [am] about to take [the] piece of wood of Joseph which [is] in [the] hand of Ephraim and [the] tribes of Israel (associates its *Q(K)*) and I will put them with it [the] piece of wood of Judah and I will make them into a piece of wood one and they will be one in hand my.
20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.
And they will be the pieces of wood which you will write on them in hand your to eyes their.
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:
And speak to them thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here! I [am] about to take [the] people of Israel from between the nations where they have gone there and I will gather them from round about and I will bring them into own land their.
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:
And I will make them into a nation one in the land on [the] mountains of Israel and a king one he will become of all of them king and not (they will become *Q(K)*) again two nations and not they will be divided again into two kingdoms again.
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.
And not they will make themselves unclean again by idols their and by abominations their and by all transgressions their and I will save them from all dwelling places their which they have sinned in them and I will cleanse them and they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God.
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.
And servant my David [will be] king over them and a shepherd one he will belong to all of them and in judgments my they will walk and statutes my they will keep and they will do them.
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.
And they will dwell on the land which I gave to servant my to Jacob which they dwelt in it ancestors your and they will dwell on it they and children their and [the] children of children their until perpetuity and David servant my [will be] prince of them 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 for evermore.
And I will make to them a covenant of peace a covenant of perpetuity it will be with them and I will give them and I will increase them and I will put sanctuary my in midst of them for ever.
27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
And it will be dwelling place my with them and I will become for them God and they they will become for me a people.
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.
And they will know the nations that I Yahweh [am] sanctifying Israel when is sanctuary my in midst of them for ever.
