Ezekiel 36:34-38

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 ^athe garden of Eden, and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’ 36 Then ^bthe nations that are left all around you shall know that I am the Lord; I have rebuilt the ruined places and ^creplanted that which was desolate. ^dI am the Lord; I have spoken, and I will do it.

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