Eze 36:24-38 | ESV | STEP | I will take you from the nations and gather you from all the countries and bring you into your own land .

24 ^aI will take you ^bfrom the nations and gather you from all the countries and ^cbring you into your own land. 25 ^dI will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from ^eall your uncleannesses, and ^ffrom all your idols ^gI will cleanse you. 26 And I will give you ^ha new heart, and ⁱa new spirit I will put within you. ^jAnd I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 ^kAnd I will put my Spirit within you, ^land cause you to walk in my statutes and ^mbe careful to obey my rules. ^{▼▼Or my just decrees} 28 ^oYou shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers, and ^pyou shall be my people, and I will be your God. 29 And ^qI will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. And ^rI will summon the grain and make it abundant and ^slay no famine upon you. 30 ^tI will make the fruit of the tree and the increase of the field abundant, ^uthat you may never again suffer the disgrace of famine among the nations. 31 Then ^vyou will remember your evil ways, and your deeds that were not good, and you will loathe yourselves for your iniquities and your abominations. 32 ^wIt is not for your sake that I will act, declares the Lord God; let that be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel.

33 “Thus says the Lord God: On the day that ^xI cleanse you from all your iniquities, ^yI will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the waste places shall be rebuilt. 34 And the land that was desolate shall be tilled, instead of being the desolation that it was in the sight of all who passed by. 35 And they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like ^zthe garden of Eden, and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’ 36 Then ^aathe nations that are left all around you shall know that I am the Lord; I have rebuilt the ruined places and ^abreplanted that which was desolate. ^acI am the Lord; I have spoken, and I will do it.

37 “Thus says the Lord God: This also ^adI will let the house of Israel ask me to do for them: ^aeto increase their people like ^afa flock. 38 Like the flock for sacrifices, ^{▼▼Hebrew flock of holy things} ^ahlike the flock at Jerusalem during her appointed feasts, so ^aishall the waste cities be filled with flocks of people. ^ajThen they will know that I am the Lord.”
