1 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. The Dry Bones Live. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
The hand of YHWH was on me, and he
brought me out in the Spirit of YHWH, and set me down in the midst of the
valley; and it was full of bones.
2 He caused me to pass by them all around: and
behold, there were very many in the open valley; and behold, they were very
dry.
3 He said to me, Son of man, can these bones
live? I answered, ADONAI YHWH, you know.
4 Again he said to me, Prophesy over these
bones, and tell them, you dry bones, hear the word of YHWH!
5 Thus says ADONAI YHWH to these bones: Behold,
I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.
6 I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up
flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall
live; and you shall know that I am YHWH!
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I
prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, an earthquake; and the bones came
together, bone to its bone.
8 I saw, and, behold, there were sinews on
them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath
in them.
9 Then he said to me, Prophesy to the wind,
prophesy, son of man, and tell the wind, Thus says ADONAI YHWH: Come from the
four winds, breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.
10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the
breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an
exceedingly great army.
11 Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones
are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried up, and
our hope is lost; we are clean cut off.
12 Therefore prophesy, and tell them, Thus says
ADONAI YHWH: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of
your graves, my people; and I will bring you into Eretz-Israel.
13 You shall know that I am YHWH, when I have
opened your graves, and caused you to come up out of your graves, my people.
14 I will put my Spirit in you, and you shall
live, and I will place you in your own land: and you shall know that I, YHWH,
have spoken it and performed it, says YHWH!
15 \Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnestLOW”\. One Kingdom, One King. .\Vce=Speaker=“LeslieEarnest”\.
The word of YHWH came again to me,
saying,
16 You, son of man, take one stick, and write
on it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take
another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all
the house of Israel his companions:
17 and join them for you one to another into
one stick, that they may become one in your hand.
18 When the children of your people shall speak
to you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these?
19 tell them, Thus says ADONAI YHWH: 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, even with the stick of
Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand.
20 The sticks whereon you write shall be in
your hand before their eyes.
21 Say to them, Thus says ADONAI YHWH: Behold,
I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, where they are gone,
and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
22 and I will make them one nation in the land,
on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all; and they
shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms
any more at all;
23 neither shall they defile themselves any
more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their
transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling places, in which
they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will
be their ELOHIM!
24 My servant David shall be king over them;
and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my ordinances,
and observe my statutes, and do them.
25 They shall dwell in the land that I have
given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers lived; and they shall dwell
therein, they, and their children, and their children’s children, forever: and
David my servant shall be their prince for ever.
26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace
with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will place
them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in their midst forevermore.
27 My tent also shall be with them; and I will
be their ELOHIM, and they shall be my people.
28 The nations shall know that I am YHWH who
sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in their midst forevermore.
