22“So tell the people of Israel, ‘This is what the Almighty Lord says: I am about to do something, people of Israel. I will not do this for your sake but for the sake of my holy name, which you have dishonored among the nations wherever you have gone. 23I will reveal the holiness of my great name, which has been dishonored by the nations, ⸤the name⸥ that you have dishonored among them. Then the nations will know that I am the Lord, because I will reveal my holiness among you as they watch, declares the Almighty Lord. 

24“ ‘I will take you from the nations and gather you from every country. I will bring you back to your own land. 25I will sprinkle clean water on you and make you cleanbinstead of unclean. Then I will cleanse you from all your idols. 26I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you. I will remove your stubborn hearts and give you obedient hearts. 27I will put my Spirit in you. I will enable you to live by my laws, and you will obey my rules. 28Then you will live in the land that I gave your ancestors. You will be my people, and I will be your God. 29I will rescue you from all your uncleanness. I will make the grain grow so that you will never again have famines. 30I will make fruit grow on the trees and crops grow in the fields so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famines. 31Then you will remember your evil ways and the bad things that you did, and you will hate yourselves for all these wicked and disgusting things. 32I want you to know that I’m not doing this for your sake, declares the Almighty Lord. Be ashamed and disgraced because of your ways, people of Israel.
