Ezekiel 34:25-27

Expanded Bible

²⁵ “‘I will make an ·agreement [covenant; treaty] of peace with ·my sheep [^Lthem] and will remove ·harmful animals [wild beasts] from the land. Then the sheep will live safely in the ·desert [wilderness] and sleep in the woods. ²⁶ I will ·bless them and let them live around my hill [or make them and the regions around my hill a blessing]. I will cause ·the rains [showers] to come ·when it is time [in their season]; there will be showers to bless them. ²⁷ Also the trees ·in the countryside [^Lof the field] will ·give [yield] their fruit, and the land will give its ·harvest [produce; increase]. And the sheep will ·be safe [live securely] on their land. Then they will know that I am the Lord when I break the bars of their ·captivity [^Lyoke] and ·save [rescue] them from the ·power [^Lhand] of those who made them slaves.
