Ezekiel 37:18–25

¹⁸“And when the sons of your people speak to you saying, ‘Will you not declare to us ^awhat you mean by these?’

¹⁹say to them, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel, his companions; and I will put them with it, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they will be one in My hand.” ’

²⁰“And the sticks on which you write will be in your hand before their eyes.

²¹“And speak to them, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “Behold, I will ^atake the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;

²²and I will make them ^aone nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and ^bone king will be king for all of them; and they will no longer be two nations and no longer be divided into two kingdoms.

²³“They also will ^ano longer defile themselves with their idols or with their detestable things or with any of their transgressions; but ^bI will save them from all their ¹places of habitation in which they have sinned, and I will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their God.

Yahweh Cuts a Covenant

²⁴“And My servant ^aDavid will be king over them, and they will all have ^bone shepherd; and they will walk in My judgments and keep My statutes and do them.

²⁵“They will inhabit the land that I gave to Jacob My servant, which your fathers inhabited; and they will inhabit it, they, and their sons and their sons’ sons, forever; and ^aDavid My servant will be their prince forever.
