Also, thou son
of man,
prophesy
unto the mountains
of Israel,
and say,
Ye mountains
of Israel,
hear
the word
of the LORD:
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Because the enemy
hath said
against you, Aha,
even the ancient
high places
are ours in possession:
Therefore prophesy
and say,
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Because they have made you desolate,
and swallowed you up
on every side,
that ye might be a possession
unto the residue
of the heathen,
and ye are taken up
in the lips
of talkers,
and are an infamy
of the people:

Therefore, ye mountains
of Israel,
hear
the word
of the Lord
GOD;
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD
to the mountains,
and to the hills,
to the rivers,
and to the valleys,
to the desolate
wastes,
and to the cities
that are forsaken,
which became a prey
and derision
to the residue
of the heathen
that are round about;

Therefore thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Surely in the fire
of my jealousy
have I spoken
against the residue
of the heathen,
and against all Idumea,
which have appointed
my land
into their possession
with the joy
of all their heart,
with despiteful
minds,
to cast it out
for a prey.

Prophesy
therefore concerning the land
of Israel,
and say
unto the mountains,
and to the hills,
to the rivers,
and to the valleys,
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Behold, I have spoken
in my jealousy
and in my fury,
because ye have borne
the shame
of the heathen:

Therefore thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
I have lifted up
mine hand,
Surely the heathen
that are about
you, they shall bear
their shame.
But ye, O mountains
of Israel,
ye shall shoot forth
your branches,
and yield
your fruit
to my people
of Israel;
for they are at hand
to come.
For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn
unto you, and ye shall be tilled
and sown:
And I will multiply
men
upon you, all the house
of Israel,
even all of it: and the cities
shall be inhabited,
and the wastes
shall be builded:
And I will multiply
upon you man
and beast;
and they shall increase
and bring fruit:
and I will settle
you after your old estates,
and will do better
unto you than at your beginnings:
and ye shall know
that I am the LORD.

Yea, I will cause men
to walk

Israel;
and they shall possess
thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance,
and thou shalt no more
henceforth bereave
them of men.

ἀτεκνωθῆναι

Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Because they say
unto you, Thou land devourest up
men,
and hast bereaved
thy nations;
Therefore thou shalt devour
men
no more, neither bereave
thy nations
any more, saith
the Lord
GOD.
Neither will I cause men to hear
in thee the shame
of the heathen
any more, neither shalt thou bear
the reproach
of the people
any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nations
to fall
any more, saith
the Lord
GOD.
Moreover the word
of the LORD
came unto me, saying,
Son
of man,
when the house
of Israel
dwelt
in their own land,
they defiled
it by their own way
and by their doings:
their way
was before
me as the uncleanness
of a removed woman.

Wherefore I poured
my fury
upon them for the blood
that they had shed
upon the land,
and for their idols
wherewith they had polluted
it:
And I scattered
them among the heathen,
and they were dispersed
through the countries:
according to their way
and according to their doings
I judged
them.
And when they entered
unto the heathen,
whither they went,
they profaned
my holy
name,
when they said
to them, These are the people
of the LORD,
and are gone forth
out of his land.
But I had pity
for mine holy
name,
which the house
of Israel
had profaned
among the heathen,
whither they went.
Therefore say
unto the house
of Israel,
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
I do
not this for your sakes, O house
of Israel,
but for mine holy
name's
sake, which ye have profaned
among the heathen,
whither ye went.
say
And I will sanctify
my great
name,
which was profaned
among the heathen,
which ye have profaned
in the midst
of them; and the heathen
shall know
that I am the LORD,
saith
the Lord
GOD,
when I shall be sanctified
in you before their eyes.
For I will take
you from among
the heathen,
and gather
you out of all countries,
and will bring
you into your own land.
Then will I sprinkle
clean
water
upon you, and ye shall be clean:
from all your filthiness,
and from all your idols,
will I cleanse
you.
sprinkle

A new
heart
also will I give
you, and a new
spirit
will I put
within
you: and I will take away
the stony
heart
out of your flesh,
and I will give
you an heart
of flesh.
And I will put
my spirit
within
you, and cause
you to walk
in my statutes,
and ye shall keep
my judgments,
and do
them.
And ye shall dwell
in the land
that I gave
to your fathers;
and ye shall be my people,
and I will be your God.
I will also save
you from all your uncleannesses:
and I will call
for the corn,
and will increase
it, and lay
no famine
upon you.
And I will multiply
the fruit
of the tree,
and the increase
of the field,
that ye shall receive
no more reproach
of famine
among the heathen.
Then shall ye remember
your own evil
ways,
and your doings
that were not good,
and shall lothe
yourselves in your own sight
for your iniquities
and for your abominations.

Not for your sakes do
I this, saith
the Lord
GOD,
be it known
unto you: be ashamed
and confounded
for your own ways,
O house
of Israel.
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
In the day
that I shall have cleansed
you from all your iniquities
I will also cause you to dwell
in the cities,
and the wastes
shall be builded.
And the desolate
land
shall be tilled,
whereas it lay desolate
in the sight
of all that passed by.
And they shall say,
This
land
that was desolate
is become like the garden
of Eden;
and the waste
and desolate
and ruined
cities
are become fenced,
and are inhabited.

Then the heathen
that are left

you shall know
that I the LORD
build

that that was desolate:
I the LORD
have spoken
it, and I will do
it.

Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
I will yet for this be enquired
of by the house
of Israel,
to do
it for them; I will increase
them with men
like a flock.
As the holy
flock,
as the flock
of Jerusalem
in her solemn feasts;
so shall the waste
cities
be filled
with flocks
of men:
and they shall know
that I am the LORD.
