Ezekiel 37:21-28

English Standard Version

²¹then say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, ^(A)I will take the people of Israel from the nations among which they have gone, and will gather them from all around, and ^(B)bring them to their own land. ²²And ^(C)I will make them one nation in the land, on ^(D)the mountains of Israel. And ^(E)one king shall be king over them all, and they shall be no longer ^(F)two nations, and no longer divided into two kingdoms. ²³^(G)They shall not ^(H)defile themselves anymore ^(I)with their idols and their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions. But ^(J)I will save them from all the backslidings^[a] in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them; and ^(K)they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

²⁴“My servant ^(L)David ^(M)shall be king over them, and they shall all have ^(N)one shepherd. ^(O)They shall walk in my rules and be careful to obey my statutes. ²⁵^(P)They shall dwell in the land that I gave to my servant Jacob, where your fathers lived. They and their children and their children's children shall dwell there ^(Q)forever, and David my servant shall be their prince ^(R)forever. ²⁶^(S)I will make a covenant of peace with them. It shall be ^(T)an everlasting covenant with them. And I will set them in their land^[b] and ^(U)multiply them, and will ^(V)set my sanctuary in their midst forevermore. ²⁷^(W)My dwelling place shall be with them, ^(X)and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. ²⁸Then ^(Y)the nations will know that ^(Z)I am the Lord who sanctifies Israel, when ^(AA)my sanctuary is in their midst forevermore.”
