1. There hath been upon me a hand of Jehovah, and He taketh me forth in the Spirit of Jehovah, and doth place me in the midst of the valley, and it is full of bones,
|
1. The hand H3027 of the LORD H3068 was H1961 upon H5921 me , and carried me out H3318 in the spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 , and set me down H5117 in the midst H8432 of the valley H1237 which H1931 was full H4392 of bones H6106 ,
|
|
2. and He causeth me to pass over by them, all round about, and lo, very many are on the face of the valley, and lo, very dry.
|
2. And caused me to pass H5674 by H5921 them round about H5439 H5439 : and, behold H2009 , there were very H3966 many H7227 in H5921 the open H6440 valley H1237 ; and, lo H2009 , they were very H3966 dry H3002 .
|
|
3. And He saith unto me, `Son of man, do these bones live?` And I say, `O Lord Jehovah, Thou -- Thou hast known.`
|
3. And he said H559 unto H413 me, Son H1121 of man H120 , can these H428 bones H6106 live H2421 ? And I answered H559 , O Lord H136 GOD H3069 , thou H859 knowest H3045 .
|
|
4. And He saith unto me, `Prophesy concerning these bones, and thou hast said unto them: O dry bones, hear a word of Jehovah:
|
4. Again he said H559 unto H413 me, Prophesy H5012 upon H5921 these H428 bones H6106 , and say H559 unto H413 them , O ye dry H3002 bones H6106 , hear H8085 the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
5. Thus said the Lord Jehovah to these bones: Lo, I am bringing into you a spirit, and ye have lived,
|
5. Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 unto these H428 bones H6106 ; Behold H2009 , I H589 will cause breath H7307 to enter H935 into you , and ye shall live H2421 :
|
|
6. and I have given on you sinews, and cause flesh to come up upon you, and covered you over with skin, and given in you a spirit, and ye have lived, and ye have known that I am Jehovah.`
|
6. And I will lay H5414 sinews H1517 upon H5921 you , and will bring up H5927 flesh H1320 upon H5921 you , and cover H7159 H5921 you with skin H5785 , and put H5414 breath H7307 in you , and ye shall live H2421 ; and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD H3068 .
|
|
7. And I have prophesied as I have been commanded, and there is a noise, as I am prophesying, and lo, a rushing, and draw near do the bones, bone unto its bone.
|
7. So I prophesied H5012 as H834 I was commanded H6680 : and as I prophesied H5012 , there was H1961 a noise H6963 , and behold H2009 a shaking H7494 , and the bones H6106 came together H7126 , bone H6106 to H413 his bone H6106 .
|
|
8. And I beheld, and lo, on them are sinews, and flesh hath come up, and cover them doth skin over above -- and spirit there is none in them.
|
8. And when I beheld H7200 , lo H2009 , the sinews H1517 and the flesh H1320 came up H5927 upon H5921 them , and the skin H5785 covered H7159 H5921 them above H4605 : but there was no H369 breath H7307 in them.
|
|
9. And He saith unto me: `Prophesy unto the Spirit, prophesy, son of man, and thou hast said unto the Spirit: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: From the four winds come in, O Spirit, and breathe on these slain, and they do live.`
|
9. Then said H559 he unto H413 me, Prophesy H5012 unto H413 the wind H7307 , prophesy H5012 , son H1121 of man H120 , and say H559 to H413 the wind H7307 , Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Come H935 from the four H4480 H702 winds H7307 , O breath H7307 , and breathe H5301 upon these H428 slain H2026 , that they may live H2421 .
|
|
10. And I have prophesied as He commanded me, and the Spirit cometh into them, and they live, and stand on their feet -- a very very great force.
|
10. So I prophesied H5012 as H834 he commanded H6680 me , and the breath H7307 came H935 into them , and they lived H2421 , and stood up H5975 upon H5921 their feet H7272 , an exceeding H3966 H3966 great H1419 army H2428 .
|
|
11. And He saith unto me, `Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; lo, they are saying: Dried up have our bones, And perished hath our hope, We have been cut off by ourselves.
|
11. Then he said H559 unto H413 me, Son H1121 of man H120 , these H428 bones H6106 are the whole H3605 house H1004 of Israel H3478 : behold H2009 , they say H559 , Our bones H6106 are dried H3001 , and our hope H8615 is lost H6 : we are cut off H1504 for our parts.
|
|
12. Therefore, prophesy, and thou hast said unto them, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am opening your graves, And have brought you up out of your graves, O My people, And brought you in unto the land of Israel.
|
12. Therefore H3651 prophesy H5012 and say H559 unto H413 them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Behold H2009 , O my people H5971 , I H589 will open H6605 H853 your graves H6913 , and cause you to come up H5927 out of your graves H4480 H6913 , and bring H935 you into H413 the land H127 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
13. And ye have known that I am Jehovah, In My opening your graves, And in My bringing you up out of your graves, O My people.
|
13. And ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD H3068 , when I have opened H6605 H853 your graves H6913 , O my people H5971 , and brought you up H5927 H853 out of your graves H4480 H6913 ,
|
|
14. And I have given My Spirit in you, and ye have lived, And I have caused you to rest on your land, And ye have known that I Jehovah, I have spoken, and I have done it, An affirmation of Jehovah.`
|
14. And shall put H5414 my spirit H7307 in you , and ye shall live H2421 , and I shall place H5117 you in H5921 your own land H127 : then shall ye know H3045 that H3588 I H589 the LORD H3068 have spoken H1696 it , and performed H6213 it , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
15. And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
|
15. The word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 again unto H413 me, saying H559 ,
|
|
16. `And thou, son of man, take to thee one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the sons of Israel, his companions; and take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the house of Israel, his companions,
|
16. Moreover, thou H859 son H1121 of man H120 , take H3947 thee one H259 stick H6086 , and write H3789 upon H5921 it , For Judah H3063 , and for the children H1121 of Israel H3478 his companions H2270 : then take H3947 another H259 stick H6086 , and write H3789 upon H5921 it , For Joseph H3130 , the stick H6086 of Ephraim H669 , and for all H3605 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 his companions H2270 :
|
|
17. and bring them near one unto another, to thee, for one stick, and they have become one in thy hand.
|
17. And join H7126 them one H259 to H413 another H259 into one H259 stick H6086 ; and they shall become H1961 one H259 in thine hand H3027 .
|
|
18. `And when sons of thy people speak unto thee, saying, Dost thou not declare to us what these are to thee?
|
18. And when H834 the children H1121 of thy people H5971 shall speak H559 unto H413 thee, saying H559 , Wilt thou not H3808 show H5046 us what H4100 thou meanest by these H428 ?
|
|
19. Speak unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the stick of Joseph, that is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and have given them unto him, with the stick of Judah, and have made them become one stick, and they have been one in My hand.
|
19. Say H1696 unto H413 them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Behold H2009 , I H589 will take H3947 H853 the stick H6086 of Joseph H3130 , which H834 is in the hand H3027 of Ephraim H669 , and the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 his fellows H2270 , and will put H5414 them with H5921 him, even with H854 the stick H6086 of Judah H3063 , and make H6213 them one H259 stick H6086 , and they shall be H1961 one H259 in mine hand H3027 .
|
|
20. And the sticks on which thou writest have been in thy hand before thine eyes,
|
20. And the sticks H6086 whereon H834 H5921 thou writest H3789 shall be H1961 in thine hand H3027 before their eyes H5869 .
|
|
21. and speak thou unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the sons of Israel, From among the nations whither they have gone, And have gathered them from round about, And I have brought them in unto their land.
|
21. And say H1696 unto H413 them, Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Behold H2009 , I H589 will take H3947 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 from among H4480 H996 the heathen H1471 , whither H834 H8033 they be gone H1980 , and will gather H6908 them on every side H4480 H5439 , and bring H935 them into H413 their own land H127 :
|
|
22. And I have made them become one nation in the land, on mountains of Israel, And one king is to them all for king, And they are no more as two nations, Nor are they divided any more into two kingdoms again.
|
22. And I will make H6213 them one H259 nation H1471 in the land H776 upon the mountains H2022 of Israel H3478 ; and one H259 king H4428 shall be H1961 king H4428 to them all H3605 : and they shall be H1961 no H3808 more H5750 two H8147 nations H1471 , neither H3808 shall they be divided H2673 into two H8147 kingdoms H4467 any more at all H5750 H5750 :
|
|
23. Nor are they defiled any more with their idols, And with their abominations, And with any of their transgressions, And I have saved them out of all their dwellings, In which they have sinned, And I have cleansed them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I -- I am to them for God.
|
23. Neither H3808 shall they defile H2930 themselves any more H5750 with their idols H1544 , nor with their detestable things H8251 , nor with any H3605 of their transgressions H6588 : but I will save H3467 them out of all H4480 H3605 their dwelling places H4186 , wherein H834 they have sinned H2398 , and will cleanse H2891 them : so shall they be H1961 my people H5971 , and I H589 will be H1961 their God H430 .
|
|
24. And My servant David is king over them, And one shepherd have they all, And in My judgments they go, And My statutes they keep, and have done them.
|
24. And David H1732 my servant H5650 shall be king H4428 over H5921 them ; and they all H3605 shall have H1961 one H259 shepherd H7462 : they shall also walk H1980 in my judgments H4941 , and observe H8104 my statutes H2708 , and do H6213 them.
|
|
25. And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son`s sons -- unto the age, And David My servant is their prince -- to the age.
|
25. And they shall dwell H3427 in H5921 the land H776 that H834 I have given H5414 unto Jacob H3290 my servant H5650 , wherein H834 your fathers H1 have dwelt H3427 ; and they shall dwell H3427 therein H5921 , even they H1992 , and their children H1121 , and their children H1121 's children H1121 forever H5769 : and my servant H5650 David H1732 shall be their prince H5387 forever H5769 .
|
|
26. And I have made to them a covenant of peace, A covenant age-during it is with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst -- to the age.
|
26. Moreover I will make H3772 a covenant H1285 of peace H7965 with them ; it shall be H1961 an everlasting H5769 covenant H1285 with H854 them : and I will place H5414 them , and multiply H7235 them , and will set H5414 my sanctuary H4720 in the midst H8432 of them forevermore H5769 .
|
|
27. And My tabernacle hath been over them, And I have been to them for God, And they have been to Me for a people.
|
27. My tabernacle H4908 also shall be H1961 with H5921 them: yea , I will be H1961 their God H430 , and they H1992 shall be H1961 my people H5971 .
|
|
28. And known have the nations that I Jehovah am sanctifying Israel, In My sanctuary being in their midst -- to the age!`
|
28. And the heathen H1471 shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 the LORD H3068 do sanctify H6942 H853 Israel H3478 , when my sanctuary H4720 shall be H1961 in the midst H8432 of them forevermore H5769 .
