Promise of Restoration for the Exiles

14

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

15

Son of man, thy brethren, thy brethren, thy kinsmen, and all the house of Israel, all they to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said: Get ye far from the Lord, the land is given in possession to us.

16

Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because I have removed them far off among the Gentiles, and because I have scattered them among the countries: I will be to them a little sanctuary in the countries whither they are come.

17

Therefore speak to them: Thus saith the Lord God: I will gather you from among the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries wherein you are scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.

18

And they shall go in thither, and shall take away all the scandals, and all the abominations thereof from thence.

19

And I will give them one heart, and will put a new spirit in their bowels: and I will take away the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh:

20

That they may walk in my commandments, and keep my judgments, and do them: and that they may be my people, and I may be their God.

21

But as for them whose heart walketh after their scandals and abominations, I will lay their way upon their head, saith the Lord God.
