Ezekiel 11:14-21
Yahweh Will Gather the Exiles
14Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, 15“Son of man, your brothers, your 1relatives, 2your fellow exiles, and the whole house of Israel, all of them, are those to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, ‘Go far from Yahweh; this land has been given to aus as a possession.’ 16“Therefore say, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “Though I had removed them far away among the nations, and though I had scattered them among the countries, yet I was a asanctuary for them a little while in the countries where they had gone.”’ 17“Therefore say, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “I will agather you from the peoples and assemble you out of the countries among which you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.”’ 18“When they come there, they will aremove all its bdetestable things and all its abominations from it. 19“And I will agive them one heart and give within 1them a new spirit. And I will take the bheart of stone out of their flesh and give them a cheart of flesh, 20that they may awalk in My statutes and keep My judgments and do them. Then they will be bMy people, and I shall be their God. 21“1But as for those whose hearts walk after their adetestable things and abominations, I will bgive what is due for their way on their heads,” declares Lord Yahweh.
