Ezekiel 37:5–10

5 This is what the Lord God says to these bones: I will cause breath to enter you, and you will live.d 6 I will put tendons on you, make flesh grow on you, and cover you with skin. I will put breath in you so that you come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”e

7 So I prophesied as I had been commanded. While I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 As I looked, tendons appeared on them, flesh grew, and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them. 9 He said to me, “Prophesy to the breath,* prophesy, son of man. Say to it: This is what the Lord God says: Breath, come from the four winds and breathe into these slain so that they may live!”f 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me; the breath entered them,g and they came to life and stood on their feet, a vast army.
