* The hand of the LORD came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the LORD , and set me down in the midst of the valley ; and it was full of bones . * Then He caused me to pass by them all around , and behold , there were very many in the open valley ; and indeed they were very dry . * And He said to me , "Son of man , can these bones live ?" So I answered , "O Lord GOD , You know ." * Again He said to me , "Prophesy to these bones , and say to them , "O dry bones , hear the word of the LORD ! * Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones : "Surely I will cause breath to enter into you , and you shall live . * I will put sinews on you and bring flesh upon you , cover you with skin and put breath in you ; and you shall live . Then you shall know that I am the LORD .""' * So I prophesied as I was commanded ; and as I prophesied , there was a noise , and suddenly a rattling ; and the bones came together , bone to bone . * Indeed , as I looked , the sinews and the flesh came upon them , and the skin covered them over ; but there was no breath in them . * Also He said to me , "Prophesy to the breath , prophesy , son of man , and say to the breath , "Thus says the Lord GOD : "Come from the four winds , O breath , and breathe on these slain , that they may live .""' * So I prophesied as He commanded me , and breath came into them , and they lived , and stood upon their feet , an exceedingly great army . * Then He said to me , "Son of man , these bones are the whole house of Israel . They indeed say , "Our bones are dry , our hope is lost , and we ourselves are cut off !' * Therefore prophesy and say to them , "Thus says the Lord GOD : "Behold , O My people , I will open your graves and cause you to come up from your graves , and bring you into the land of Israel . * Then you shall know that I am the LORD , when I have opened your graves , O My people , and brought you up from your graves . * I will put My Spirit in you , and you shall live , and I will place you in your own land . Then you shall know that I , the LORD , have spoken it and performed it ," says the LORD ."'
