Ezekiel 20:33-44

The Lord Will Restore Israel

33 a“As I live, declares the Lord God, bsurely with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and cwith wrath poured out I will be king over you. 34 dI will bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you are scattered, with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out. 35 eAnd I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, fand there I will enter into judgment with you gface to face. 36 hAs I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I will enter into judgment with you, declares the Lord God. 37I will make you ipass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant. 38 jI will purge out the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against me. kI will bring them out of the land where they sojourn, lbut they shall not enter the land of Israel. mThen you will know that I am the Lord.

39“As for you, O house of Israel, thus says the Lord God: nGo serve every one of you his idols, now and hereafter, if you will not listen to me; obut my holy name you shall no more profane with your gifts and your idols.

40 p“For on my holy mountain, the mountain height of Israel, declares the Lord God, there qall the house of Israel, all of them, shall serve me in the land. rThere I will accept them, and there I will require your contributions and the choicest of your gifts, with all your sacred offerings. 41As a pleasing aroma I will accept you, when sI bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you have been scattered. And tI will manifest my holiness among you in the sight of the nations. 42 uAnd you shall know that I am the Lord, when I bring you into the land of Israel, the country that vI swore to give to your fathers. 43 wAnd there you shall remember your ways and all your deeds with which you have defiled yourselves, xand you shall loathe yourselves for all the evils that you have committed. 44And you shall know that I am the Lord, ywhen I deal with you for my name’s sake, znot according to your evil ways, nor according to your corrupt deeds, O house of Israel, declares the Lord God.”
