rsv Ezekiel:37:1-14
rsv@Ezekiel:37:1 @ The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley; it was full of bones.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:2 @ And he led me round among them; and behold, there were very many upon the valley; and lo, they were very dry.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:3 @ And he said to me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" And I answered, "O Lord GOD, thou knowest."
rsv@Ezekiel:37:4 @ Again he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:5 @ Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:6 @ And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the LORD."
rsv@Ezekiel:37:7 @ So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its bone.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:8 @ And as I looked, there were sinews on them, and flesh had come upon them, and skin had covered them; but there was no breath in them.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:9 @ Then 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 upon these slain, that they may live."
rsv@Ezekiel:37:10 @ So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, an exceedingly great host.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:11 @ Then he said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, `Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off.'
rsv@Ezekiel:37:12 @ Therefore prophesy, and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I will open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people; and I will bring you home into the land of Israel.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:13 @ And you shall know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people.
rsv@Ezekiel:37:14 @ And I will put my Spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land; then you shall know that I, the LORD, have spoken, and I have done it, says the LORD."
