 37:1 ¶
And the hand of the Lord came upon me, and the Lord brought me forth by the Spirit, and set me in the midst of the plain, and it was full of human bones. |
|
 37:1 ¶
The handº
of Yahwehº
wasº
uponº
me, and carried me outºº
in the spiritº
of Yahweh,º
and set me downºº
in the midstº
of the valleyº
whichº
[was] fullº
of bones,º |
 37:2
And he led me round about them every way: and, behold, [there were] very many on the face of the plain, very dry. |
|
 37:2
And caused me to passºº
byº
them round about:º
and, behold,º
[there were] veryº
manyº
inº
the openº
valley;º
and, lo,º
[they were] veryº
dry.º |
 37:3
And he said to me, Son of man, will these bones live? and I said, O Lord God, thou knowest this. |
|
 37:3
And he saidºº
untoº
me, Sonº
of man,º
can theseº
bonesº
live?ºº
And I answered,ºº
O Adonaiº
Yahweh,º
thouº
knowest.ºº |
 37:4
And he said to me, Prophesy upon these bones, and thou shalt say to them, Ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. |
|
 37:4
Again he saidºº
untoº
me, Prophesyºº
uponº
theseº
bones,º
and sayºº
untoº
them, O ye dryº
bones,º
hearºº
the wordº
of Yahweh.º |
 37:5
Thus saith the Lord to these bones; Behold, I [will] bring upon you the breath of life: |
|
 37:5
Thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahwehº
unto theseº
bones;º
Behold,º
Iº
will cause breathº
to enterºº
into you, and ye shall live:ºº |
 37:6
and I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and will spread skin upon you, and will put my Spirit into you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord. |
|
 37:6
And I will layºº
sinewsº
uponº
you, and will bring upºº
fleshº
uponº
you, and coverººº
you with skin,º
and putºº
breathº
in you, and ye shall live;ºº
and ye shall knowºº
thatº
Iº
[am] Yahweh.º |
 37:7
So I prophesied as [the Lord] commanded me: and it came to pass while I was prophesying, that, behold, [there was] a shaking, and the bones approached each one to his joint. |
|
 37:7
So I prophesiedºº
asº
I was commanded:ºº
and as I prophesied,ºº
there wasº
a noise,º
and beholdº
a shaking,º
and the bonesº
came together,ºº
boneº
toº
his bone.º |
 37:8
And I looked, and behold, sinews and flesh grew upon them, and skin came upon them above: but there was not breath in them. |
|
 37:8
And when I beheld,ºº
lo,º
the sinewsº
and the fleshº
came upºº
uponº
them, and the skinº
coveredººº
them above:º
but [there was] noº
breathº
in them. |
 37:9
And he said to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord; Come from the four winds, and breathe upon these dead [men], and let them live. |
|
 37:9
Then saidºº
he untoº
me, Prophesyºº
untoº
the wind,º
prophesy,ºº
sonº
of man,º
and sayºº
toº
the wind,º
Thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh;º
Comeºº
from the fourºº
winds,º
O breath,º
and breatheºº
upon theseº
slain,ºº
that they may live.ºº |
 37:10
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath entered into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, a very great congregation. |
|
 37:10
So I prophesiedºº
asº
he commandedºº
me, and the breathº
cameºº
into them, and they lived,ºº
and stood upºº
uponº
their feet,º
an exceedingº
greatº
army.º |
 37:11 ¶
And the Lord spoke to me, saying, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: and they say, Our bones are become dry, our hope has perished, we are quite spent. |
|
 37:11 ¶
Then he saidºº
untoº
me, Sonº
of man,º
theseº
bonesº
are the wholeº
houseº
of Israel:º
behold,º
they say,ºº
Our bonesº
are dried,ºº
and our hopeº
is lost:ºº
we are cut offºº
for our parts. |
 37:12
Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I [will] open your tombs, and will bring you up out of your tombs, and will bring you into the land of Israel. |
|
 37:12
Thereforeº
prophesyºº
and sayºº
untoº
them, Thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh;º
Behold,º
O my people,º
Iº
will openººº
your graves,º
and cause you to come upºº
out of your graves,ºº
and bringºº
you intoº
the landº
of Israel.º |
 37:13
And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, that I may bring up my people from [their] graves. |
|
 37:13
And ye shall knowºº
thatº
Iº
[am] Yahweh,º
when I have openedººº
your graves,º
O my people,º
and brought you upººº
out of your graves,ºº |
 37:14
And I will put my Spirit within you, and ye shall live, and I will place you upon your own land: and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord; I have spoken, and will do [it], saith the Lord. |
|
 37:14
And shall putºº
my spiritº
in you, and ye shall live,ºº
and I shall placeººº
you inº
your own land:º
then shall ye knowºº
thatº
Iº
Yahwehº
have spokenºº
[it], and performedºº
[it], saithºº
Yahweh.º |
 37:15 ¶
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, |
|
 37:15 ¶
The wordº
of Yahwehº
cameº
again untoº
me, saying,ºº |
 37:16
Son of man, take for thyself a rod, and write upon it, Judah{gr.Juda}, and the children of Israel his adherents; and thou shalt take for thyself another rod, and thou shalt inscribe it for Joseph, the rod of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel that belong to him. |
|
 37:16
Moreover, thouº
sonº
of man,º
takeºº
thee oneº
stick,º
and writeºº
uponº
it, For Judah,º
and for the childrenº
of Israelº
his companions:º
then takeºº
anotherº
stick,º
and writeºº
uponº
it, For Joseph,º
the stickº
of Ephraim,º
and [for] allº
the houseº
of Israelº
his companions:º |
 37:17
And thou shalt joint them together for thyself, so as that they should bind themselves into one stick; and they shall be in thine hand. |
|
 37:17
And joinºº
them oneº
toº
anotherº
into oneº
stick;º
and they shall becomeº
oneº
in thine hand.º |
 37:18 ¶
And it shall come to pass, when the children of thy people shall say to thee, Wilt thou not tell us what thou meanest by these things? |
|
 37:18 ¶
And whenº
the childrenº
of thy peopleº
shall speakºº
untoº
thee, saying,ºº
Wilt thou notº
shewºº
us whatº
thou [meanest] by these?º |
 37:19
Then shalt thou say to them, Thus saith the Lord; behold, I will take the tribe of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel that belong to him, and I will add them to the tribe of Judah{gr.Juda}, and they shall become one rod in the hand of Judah{gr.Juda}. |
|
 37:19
Sayºº
untoº
them, Thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh;º
Behold,º
Iº
will takeººº
the stickº
of Joseph,º
whichº
[is] in the handº
of Ephraim,º
and the tribesº
of Israelº
his fellows,º
and will putºº
them withº
him, [even] withº
the stickº
of Judah,º
and makeºº
them oneº
stick,º
and they shall beº
oneº
in mine hand.º |
 37:20 ¶
And the rods on which thou didst write shall be in thine hand in their presence. |
|
 37:20 ¶
And the sticksº
whereonºº
thou writestºº
shall beº
in thine handº
before their eyes.º |
 37:21
And thou shalt say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I [will] take the whole house of Israel out of the midst of the nations, among whom they have gone, and I will gather them from all that are round about them, and I will bring them into the land of Israel. |
|
 37:21
And sayºº
untoº
them, Thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh;º
Behold,º
Iº
will takeººº
the childrenº
of Israelº
from amongºº
the heathen,º
whitherºº
they be gone,ºº
and will gatherºº
them on every side,ºº
and bringºº
them intoº
their own land:º |
 37:22
And I will make them a nation in my land, even on the mountains of Israel; and they shall have one prince: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided any more at all into two kingdoms: |
|
 37:22
And I will makeºº
them oneº
nationº
in the landº
upon the mountainsº
of Israel;º
and oneº
kingº
shall beº
kingº
to them all:º
and they shall beºº
noº
moreº
twoº
nations,º
neitherº
shall they be dividedºº
into twoº
kingdomsº
any more at all:º |
 37:23
that they may no more defile themselves with their idols; and I will deliver them from all their transgressions whereby they have sinned, and will cleanse them; and they shall be to me a people, and I the Lord will be to them a God. |
|
 37:23
Neitherº
shall they defileºº
themselves any moreº
with their idols,º
nor with their detestable things,º
nor with anyº
of their transgressions:º
but I will saveºº
them out of allºº
their dwellingplaces,º
whereinº
they have sinned,ºº
and will cleanseºº
them: so shall they beº
my people,º
and Iº
will beº
their Elohim.º |
 37:24
And my servant David [shall be] a prince in the midst of them: there shall be one shepherd of [them] all; for they shall walk in mine ordinances, and keep my judgments, and do them. |
|
 37:24
And Davidº
my servantº
[shall be] kingº
overº
them; and they allº
shall haveº
oneº
shepherd:ºº
they shall also walkººº
in my judgments,º
and observeºº
my statutes,º
and doºº
them. |
 37:25
And they shall dwell in their land, which I have given to my servant Jacob, where their fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell upon it: and David my servant [shall be their] prince forever. |
|
 37:25
And they shall dwellºº
inº
the landº
thatº
I have givenºº
unto Jacobº
my servant,º
whereinº
your fathersº
have dwelt;ºº
and they shall dwellºº
therein,º
[even] they,º
and their children,º
and their children'sº
childrenº
for ever:º
and my servantº
Davidº
[shall be] their princeº
forº
ever.º |
 37:26
And I will make with them a covenant of peace; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will establish my sanctuary in the midst of them for ever. |
|
 37:26
Moreover I will makeºº
a covenantº
of peaceº
with them; it shall beº
an everlastingº
covenantº
withº
them: and I will placeºº
them, and multiplyºº
them, and will setºº
my sanctuaryº
in the midstº
of them for evermore.º |
 37:27
And my tabernacle shall be among them; and I will be to them a God, and they shall be my people. |
|
 37:27
My tabernacleº
also shall beº
withº
them: yea, I will beº
their Elohim,º
and theyº
shall beº
my people.º |
 37:28
And the nations shall know that I am the Lord that sanctifies them, when my sanctuary is in the midst of them for ever. |
|
 37:28
And the heathenº
shall knowºº
thatº
Iº
Yahwehº
do sanctifyººº
Israel,º
when my sanctuaryº
shall beº
in the midstº
of them for evermore.º |
