1 # Also, thou son <01121> of man <0120>, prophesy <05012> (8734) unto the mountains <02022> of Israel <03478> , and say <0559> (8804), Ye mountains <02022> of Israel <03478>, hear <08085> (8798) the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>:
2 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; Because the enemy <0341> (8802) hath said <0559> (8804) against you, Aha <01889>, even the ancient <05769> high places <01116> are ours in possession <04181>:
3 Therefore prophesy <05012> (8734) and say <0559> (8804), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; Because they have made you desolate <08074> (8800), and swallowed you up <07602> (8800) on every side <05439>, that ye might be a possession <04181> unto the residue <07611> of the heathen <01471>, and ye are taken up <05927> (8735) in the lips <08193> of talkers <03956>, and are an infamy <01681> of the people <05971>:
4 Therefore, ye mountains <02022> of Israel <03478>, hear <08085> (8798) the word <01697> of the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> to the mountains <02022>, and to the hills <01389> , to the rivers <0650>, and to the valleys <01516>, to the desolate <08074> (8802) wastes <02723>, and to the cities <05892> that are forsaken <05800> (8737), which became a prey <0957> and derision <03933> to the residue <07611> of the heathen <01471> that are round about <05439>;
5 Therefore thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; Surely in the fire <0784> of my jealousy <07068> have I spoken <01696> (8765) against the residue <07611> of the heathen <01471>, and against all Idumea <0123>, which have appointed <05414> (8804) my land <0776> into their possession <04181> with the joy <08057> of all their heart <03824> , with despiteful <07589> minds <05315>, to cast it out <04054> for a prey <0957>.
6 Prophesy <05012> (8734) therefore concerning the land <0127> of Israel <03478>, and say <0559> (8804) unto the mountains <02022>, and to the hills <01389>, to the rivers <0650>, and to the valleys <01516>, Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; Behold, I have spoken <01696> (8765) in my jealousy <07068> and in my fury <02534>, because ye have borne <05375> (8804) the shame <03639> of the heathen <01471>:
7 Therefore thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; I have lifted up <05375> (8804) mine hand <03027>, Surely the heathen <01471> that are about <05439> you, they shall bear <05375> (8799) their shame <03639> .
8 But ye, O mountains <02022> of Israel <03478>, ye shall shoot forth <05414> (8799) your branches <06057>, and yield <05375> (8799) your fruit <06529> to my people <05971> of Israel <03478>; for they are at hand <07126> (8765) to come <0935> (8800).
9 For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn <06437> (8804) unto you, and ye shall be tilled <05647> (8738) and sown <02232> (8738):
10 And I will multiply <07235> (8689) men <0120> upon you, all the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, even all of it: and the cities <05892> shall be inhabited <03427> (8738), and the wastes <02723> shall be builded <01129> (8735):
11 And I will multiply <07235> (8689) upon you man <0120> and beast <0929>; and they shall increase <07235> (8804) and bring fruit <06509> (8804): and I will settle <03427> (8689) you after your old estates <06927>, and will do better <02895> (8689) unto you than at your beginnings <07221>: and ye shall know <03045> (8804) that I am the LORD <03068> .
12 Yea, I will cause men <0120> to walk <03212> (8689) upon you, even my people <05971> Israel <03478>; and they shall possess <03423> (8804) thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance <05159>, and thou shalt no more <03254> (8686) henceforth bereave <07921> (8763) them of men.
13 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; Because they say <0559> (8802) unto you, Thou land devourest up <0398> (8802) men <0120>, and hast bereaved <07921> (8764) thy nations <01471>;
14 Therefore thou shalt devour <0398> (8799) men <0120> no more, neither bereave <07921> (8762) <03782> (8762) thy nations <01471> any more, saith <05002> (8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>.
15 Neither will I cause men to hear <08085> (8686) in thee the shame <03639> of the heathen <01471> any more, neither shalt thou bear <05375> (8799) the reproach <02781> of the people <05971> any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nations <01471> to fall <03782> (8686) any more, saith <05002> (8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>.
16 # Moreover the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came unto me, saying <0559> (8800),
17 Son <01121> of man <0120>, when the house <01004> of Israel <03478> dwelt <03427> (8802) in their own land <0127>, they defiled <02930> (8762) it by their own way <01870> and by their doings <05949>: their way <01870> was before <06440> me as the uncleanness <02932> of a removed woman <05079>.
18 Wherefore I poured <08210> (8799) my fury <02534> upon them for the blood <01818> that they had shed <08210> (8804) upon the land <0776>, and for their idols <01544> wherewith they had polluted <02930> (8765) it:
19 And I scattered <06327> (8686) them among the heathen <01471>, and they were dispersed <02219> (8735) through the countries <0776>: according to their way <01870> and according to their doings <05949> I judged <08199> (8804) them.
20 And when they entered <0935> (8799) unto the heathen <01471>, whither they went <0935> (8804), they profaned <02490> (8762) my holy <06944> name <08034>, when they said <0559> (8800) to them, These are the people <05971> of the LORD <03068>, and are gone forth <03318> (8804) out of his land <0776>.
21 But I had pity <02550> (8799) for mine holy <06944> name <08034>, which the house <01004> of Israel <03478> had profaned <02490> (8765) among the heathen <01471>, whither they went <0935> (8804).
22 Therefore say <0559> (8798) unto the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; I do <06213> (8802) not this for your sakes, O house <01004> of Israel <03478>, but for mine holy <06944> name's <08034> sake, which ye have profaned <02490> (8765) among the heathen <01471>, whither ye went <0935> (8804).
23 And I will sanctify <06942> (8765) my great <01419> name <08034>, which was profaned <02490> (8794) among the heathen <01471>, which ye have profaned <02490> (8765) in the midst <08432> of them; and the heathen <01471> shall know <03045> (8804) that I am the LORD <03068>, saith <05002> (8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, when I shall be sanctified <06942> (8736) in you before their eyes <05869>.
24 For I will take <03947> (8804) you from among <04480> the heathen <01471>, and gather <06908> (8765) you out of all countries <0776>, and will bring <0935> (8689) you into your own land <0127>.
25 # Then will I sprinkle <02236> (8804) clean <02889> water <04325> upon you, and ye shall be clean <02891> (8804): from all your filthiness <02932>, and from all your idols <01544>, will I cleanse <02891> (8762) you.
26 A new <02319> heart <03820> also will I give <05414> (8804) you, and a new <02319> spirit <07307> will I put <05414> (8799) within <07130> you: and I will take away <05493> (8689) the stony <068> heart <03820> out of your flesh <01320>, and I will give <05414> (8804) you an heart <03820> of flesh <01320>.
27 And I will put <05414> (8799) my spirit <07307> within <07130> you, and cause <06213> (8804) you to walk <03212> (8799) in my statutes <02706>, and ye shall keep <08104> (8799) my judgments <04941>, and do <06213> (8804) them.
28 And ye shall dwell <03427> (8804) in the land <0776> that I gave <05414> (8804) to your fathers <01> ; and ye shall be my people <05971>, and I will be your God <0430>.
29 I will also save <03467> (8689) you from all your uncleannesses <02932>: and I will call <07121> (8804) for the corn <01715>, and will increase <07235> (8689) it, and lay <05414> (8799) no famine <07458> upon you.
30 And I will multiply <07235> (8689) the fruit <06529> of the tree <06086>, and the increase <08570> of the field <07704>, that ye shall receive <03947> (8799) no more reproach <02781> of famine <07458> among the heathen <01471>.
31 Then shall ye remember <02142> (8804) your own evil <07451> ways <01870>, and your doings <04611> that were not good <02896>, and shall lothe <06962> (8738) yourselves in your own sight <06440> for your iniquities <05771> and for your abominations <08441>.
32 Not for your sakes do <06213> (8802) I this, saith <05002> (8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> , be it known <03045> (8735) unto you: be ashamed <0954> (8798) and confounded <03637> (8734) for your own ways <01870> , O house <01004> of Israel <03478>.
33 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; In the day <03117> that I shall have cleansed <02891> (8763) you from all your iniquities <05771> I will also cause you to dwell <03427> (8689) in the cities <05892>, and the wastes <02723> shall be builded <01129> (8738).
34 And the desolate <08074> (8737) land <0776> shall be tilled <05647> (8735), whereas it lay desolate <08077> in the sight <05869> of all that passed by <05674> (8802).
35 And they shall say <0559> (8804), This <01977> land <0776> that was desolate <08074> (8737) is become like the garden <01588> of Eden <05731>; and the waste <02720> and desolate <08074> (8737) and ruined <02040> (8737) cities <05892> are become fenced <01219> (8803), and are inhabited <03427> (8804).
36 Then the heathen <01471> that are left <07604> (8735) round about <05439> you shall know <03045> (8804) that I the LORD <03068> build <01129> (8804) the ruined <02040> (8737) places, and plant <05193> (8804) that that was desolate <08074> (8737): I the LORD <03068> have spoken <01696> (8765) it, and I will do <06213> (8804) it.
37 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>; I will yet for this be enquired <01875> (8735) of by the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, to do <06213> (8800) it for them; I will increase <07235> (8686) them with men <0120> like a flock <06629>.
38 As the holy <06944> flock <06629>, as the flock <06629> of Jerusalem <03389> in her solemn feasts <04150>; so shall the waste <02720> cities <05892> be filled <04392> with flocks <06629> of men <0120>: and they shall know <03045> (8804) that I am the LORD <03068>.
