Ezekiel 36:30–35

30 I will also make the fruit of the trees and the produce of the field plentiful, so that you will no longer experience reproach among the nations on account of famine.

31 “ ‘You will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good,aa and you will loathe yourselves for your iniquities and detestable practices.ab 32 It is not for your sake that I will actac—this is the declaration of the Lord God—let this be known to you. Be ashamed and humiliated because of your ways, house of Israel!

33 “ ‘This is what the Lord God says: On the day I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the ruins will be rebuilt.ad 34 The desolate land will be cultivated instead of lying desolate in the sight of everyone who passes by. 35 They will say, “This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden.ae The cities that were once ruined, desolate, and demolished are now fortified and inhabited.”
