*
then say to them ,
Thus says the Lord GOD :
Behold ,
I will take the people of Israel from the nations among which they have gone ,
and will gather them from all sides ,
and bring them to their own land ;
*
and I will make them one nation in the land ,
upon the mountains of Israel ;
and one king shall be king over them all ;
and they shall be no longer two nations ,
and no longer divided into two kingdoms .
*
They shall not defile themselves any more with their idols and their detestable things ,
or with any of their transgressions ;
but I will save them from all the backslidings in which they have sinned ,
and will cleanse them ;
and they shall be my people ,
and I will be their God .
* "
My servant David shall be king over them ;
and they shall all have one shepherd .
They shall follow my ordinances and be careful to observe my statutes .
*
They shall dwell in the land where your fathers dwelt that I gave to my servant Jacob ;
they and their children and their children '
s children shall dwell there for ever ;
and David my servant shall be their prince for ever .
*
I will make a covenant of peace with them ;
it shall be an everlasting covenant with them ;
and I will bless them and multiply them ,
and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore .
*
My dwelling place shall be with them ;
and I will be their God ,
and they shall be my people .
*
Then the nations will know that I the LORD sanctify Israel ,
when my sanctuary is in the midst of them for evermore ."
