37:1 The hand 3027 of the LORD 3068 was upon me, and carried me out 3318 8686 in the spirit 7307 of the LORD 3068, and set me down 5117 8686 in the midst 8432 of the valley 1237 which [was] full 4392 of bones 6106,

37:2 And caused me to pass 5674 8689 by them round about 5439: and, behold, [there were] very 3966 many 7227 in the open 6440 valley 1237; and, lo, [they were] very 3966 dry 3002.(valley: or, champaign)

37:3 And he said 559 8799 unto me, Son 1121 of man 120, can these bones 6106 live 2421 8799? And I answered 559 8799, O Lord 136 GOD 3069, thou knowest 3045 8804.

37:4 Again he said 559 8799 unto me, Prophesy 5012 8734 upon these bones 6106, and say 559 8804 unto them, O ye dry 3002 bones 6106, hear 8085 8798 the word 1697 of the LORD 3068.

37:5 Thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069 unto these bones 6106; Behold, I will cause breath 7307 to enter 935 8688 into you, and ye shall live 2421 8804:

37:6 And I will lay 5414 8804 sinews 1517 upon you, and will bring up 5927 8689 flesh 1320 upon you, and cover 7159 8804 you with skin 5785, and put 5414 8804 breath 7307 in you, and ye shall live 2421 8804; and ye shall know 3045 8804 that I [am] the LORD 3068.

37:7 So I prophesied 5012 8738 as I was commanded 6680 8795: and as I prophesied 5012 8736, there was a noise 6963, and behold a shaking 7494, and the bones 6106 came together 7126 8799, bone 6106 to his bone 6106.

37:8 And when I beheld 7200 8804, lo, the sinews 1517 and the flesh 1320 came up 5927 8804 upon them, and the skin 5785 covered 7159 8799 them above 4605: but [there was] no breath 7307 in them.

37:9 Then said 559 8799 he unto me, Prophesy 5012 8734 unto the wind 7307, prophesy 5012 8734, son 1121 of man 120, and say 559 8804 to the wind 7307, Thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Come 935 8798 from the four 702 winds 7307, O breath 7307, and breathe 5301 8798 upon these slain 2026 8803, that they may live 2421 8799.(wind: or, breath)

37:10 So I prophesied 5012 8694 as he commanded 6680 8765 me, and the breath 7307 came 935 8799 into them, and they lived 2421 8799, and stood up 5975 8799 upon their feet 7272, an exceeding 3966 3966 great 1419 army 2428.

37:11 Then he said 559 8799 unto me, Son 1121 of man 120, these bones 6106 are the whole house 1004 of Israel 3478: behold, they say 559 8802, Our bones 6106 are dried 3001 8804, and our hope 8615 is lost 6 8804: we are cut off 1504 8738 for our parts.

37:12 Therefore prophesy 5012 8734 and say 559 8804 unto them, Thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Behold, O my people 5971, I will open 6605 8802 your graves 6913, and cause you to come up 5927 8689 out of your graves 6913, and bring 935 8689 you into the land 127 of Israel 3478.

37:13 And ye shall know 3045 8804 that I [am] the LORD 3068, when I have opened 6605 8800 your graves 6913, O my people 5971, and brought you up 5927 8687 out of your graves 6913,

37:14 And shall put 5414 8804 my spirit 7307 in you, and ye shall live 2421 8804, and I shall place 3240 8689 you in your own land 127: then shall ye know 3045 8804 that I the LORD 3068 have spoken 1696 8765 [it], and performed 6213 8804 [it], saith 5002 8803 the LORD 3068.

37:15 The word 1697 of the LORD 3068 came again unto me, saying 559 8800,

37:16 Moreover, thou son 1121 of man 120, take 3947 8798 thee one 259 stick 6086, and write 3789 8798 upon it, For Judah 3063, and for the children 1121 of Israel 3478 his companions 2270: then take 3947 8798 another 259 stick 6086, and write 3789 8798 upon it, For Joseph 3130, the stick 6086 of Ephraim 669, and [for] all the house 1004 of Israel 3478 his companions 2270:

37:17 And join 7126 8761 them one 259 to another 259 into one 259 stick 6086; and they shall become one 259 in thine hand 3027.

37:18 And when the children 1121 of thy people 5971 shall speak 559 8799 unto thee, saying 559 8800, Wilt thou not shew 5046 8686 us what thou [meanest] by these?

37:19 Say 1696 8761 unto them, Thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Behold, I will take 3947 8802 the stick 6086 of Joseph 3130, which [is] in the hand 3027 of Ephraim 669, and the tribes 7626 of Israel 3478 his fellows 2270, and will put 5414 8804 them with him, [even] with the stick 6086 of Judah 3063, and make 6213 8804 them one 259 stick 6086, and they shall be one 259 in mine hand 3027.

37:20 And the sticks 6086 whereon thou writest 3789 8799 shall be in thine hand 3027 before their eyes 5869.

37:21 And say 1696 8761 unto them, Thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Behold, I will take 3947 8802 the children 1121 of Israel 3478 from among 996 the heathen 1471, whither they be gone 1980 8804, and will gather 6908 8765 them on every side 5439, and bring 935 8689 them into their own land 127:

37:22 And I will make 6213 8804 them one 259 nation 1471 in the land 776 upon the mountains 2022 of Israel 3478; and one 259 king 4428 shall be king 4428 to them all: and they shall be 5750 no more two 8147 nations 1471, neither shall they be divided 2673 8735 into two 8147 kingdoms 4467 any more at all:

37:23 Neither shall they defile 2930 8691 themselves any more with their idols 1544, nor with their detestable things 8251, nor with any of their transgressions 6588: but I will save 3467 8689 them out of all their dwellingplaces 4186, wherein they have sinned 2398 8804, and will cleanse 2891 8765 them: so shall they be my people 5971, and I will be their God 430.

37:24 And David 1732 my servant 5650 [shall be] king 4428 over them; and they all shall have one 259 shepherd 7462 8802: they shall also walk 3212 8799 in my judgments 4941, and observe 8104 8799 my statutes 2708, and do 6213 8804 them.

37:25 And they shall dwell 3427 8804 in the land 776 that I have given 5414 8804 unto Jacob 3290 my servant 5650, wherein your fathers 1 have dwelt 3427 8804; and they shall dwell 3427 8804 therein, [even] they, and their children 1121, and their children's 1121 children 1121 for ever 5769: and my servant 5650 David 1732 [shall be] their prince 5387 for 5704 ever 5769.

37:26 Moreover I will make 3772 8804 a covenant 1285 of peace 7965 with them; it shall be an everlasting 5769 covenant 1285 with them: and I will place 5414 8804 them, and multiply 7235 8689 them, and will set 5414 8804 my sanctuary 4720 in the midst 8432 of them for evermore 5769.

37:27 My tabernacle 4908 also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God 430, and they shall be my people 5971.

37:28 And the heathen 1471 shall know 3045 8804 that I the LORD 3068 do sanctify 6942 8764 Israel 3478, when my sanctuary 4720 shall be in the midst 8432 of them for evermore 5769.
