Also, you sonH1121 of man,H120 prophesyH5012 to the mountainsH2022 of Israel,H3478 and say,H559 You mountainsH2022 of Israel,H3478 hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORD:H3068
2
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 BecauseH3282 the enemyH341 has saidH559 againstH5921 you, Aha,H253 even the ancientH5769 highH1116 places are ours in possession:H4181
3
ThereforeH3651 prophesyH5012 and say,H559 ThusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 BecauseH3282 they have made you desolate,H8074 and swallowedH7602 you up on everyH5437 side,H5439 that you might be a possessionH4181 to the residueH7611 of the heathen,H1471 and you are takenH5927 up in the lipsH8193 of talkers,H3956 and are an infamyH1681 of the people:H5971
4
Therefore,H3651 you mountainsH2022 of Israel,H3478 hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH136 GOD;H3069 ThusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 to the mountains,H2022 and to the hills,H1389 to the rivers,H650 and to the valleys,H1516 to the desolateH8076 wastes,H2723 and to the citiesH5892 that are forsaken,H5800 whichH834 becameH1961 a preyH957 and derisionH3932 to the residueH7611 of the heathenH1471 that are roundH5439 about;
5
ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 SurelyH518 H3808 in the fireH784 of my jealousyH7068 have I spokenH1696 againstH5921 the residueH7611 of the heathen,H1471 and againstH5921 allH3605 Idumea,H123 whichH834 have appointedH5414 my landH776 into their possessionH4181 with the joyH8057 of allH3605 their heart,H3824 with despitefulH7589 minds,H5315 to castH4054 it out for a prey.H957
6
ProphesyH5012 thereforeH3651 concerningH5921 the landH127 of Israel,H3478 and sayH559 to the mountains,H2022 and to the hills,H1389 to the rivers,H650 and to the valleys,H1516 ThusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 Behold,H2005 I have spokenH1696 in my jealousyH7068 and in my fury,H2534 becauseH3282 you have borneH5375 the shameH3639 of the heathen:H1471
7
ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 I have liftedH5375 up my hand,H3027 SurelyH518 H3808 the heathenH1471 that are aboutH5439 you, they shall bearH5375 their shame.H3639
8
But you, O mountainsH2022 of Israel,H3478 you shall shootH5414 forth your branches,H6057 and yieldH5375 your fruitH6529 to my peopleH5971 of Israel;H3478 for they are atH7126 handH7126 to come.H935
9
For, behold,H2005 I am for you, and I will turnH6437 to you, and you shall be tilledH5647 and sown:H2232
10
And I will multiplyH7235 menH120 on you, allH3605 the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 even allH3605 of it: and the citiesH5892 shall be inhabited,H3427 and the wastesH2723 shall be built:H1129
11
And I will multiplyH7235 on you manH120 and beast;H929 and they shall increaseH7235 and bringH6509 fruit:H6509 and I will settleH3427 you after your oldH6927 estates, and will do betterH2896 to you than at your beginnings:H7221 and you shall knowH3045 that I am the LORD.H3068
12
Yes, I will cause menH120 to walkH3212 on you, evenH853 my peopleH5971 Israel;H3478 and they shall possessH3423 you, and you shall be their inheritance,H5159 and you shall noH3808 moreH5750 from now on bereaveH7921 them of men.
13
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 BecauseH3282 they sayH559 to you, You land devourH398 up men,H120 and have bereavedH7921 your nations:H1471
14
ThereforeH3651 you shall devourH398 menH120 noH3808 more,H5750 neitherH3808 bereaveH3782 H7921 your nationsH1471 any more,H5750 saidH5002 the LordH136 GOD.H3069
15
NeitherH3808 will I cause men to hearH8085 in you the shameH3639 of the heathenH1471 any more,H5750 neitherH3808 shall you bearH5375 the reproachH2781 of the peopleH5971 any more,H5750 neitherH3808 shall you cause your nationsH1471 to fallH3782 any more,H5750 saidH5002 the LordH136 GOD.H3069
16
Moreover the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to me, saying,H559
17
SonH1121 of man,H120 when the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 dwelledH3427 in their own land,H127 they defiledH2930 it by their own wayH1870 and by their doings:H5949 their wayH1870 was beforeH6440 me as the uncleannessH2932 of a removedH5079 woman.
18
Why I pouredH8210 my furyH2534 on them for the bloodH1818 that they had shedH8210 on the land,H776 and for their idolsH1544 with which they had pollutedH2930 it:
19
And I scatteredH6327 them among the heathen,H1471 and they were dispersedH2219 through the countries:H776 according to their wayH1870 and according to their doingsH5949 I judgedH8199 them.
20
And when they enteredH935 to the heathen,H1471 whereH834 H8033 they went,H935 they profanedH2490 my holyH6944 name,H8034 when they saidH559 to them, TheseH428 are the peopleH5971 of the LORD,H3068 and are goneH3318 forthH3318 out of his land.H776
21
But I had pityH2550 for my holyH6944 name,H8034 whichH834 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 had profanedH2490 among the heathen,H1471 whereH834 H8033 they went.H935
22
ThereforeH3651 sayH559 to the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 thusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 I doH6213 not this for your sakes,H4616 O houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 but for my holyH6944 name'sH8034 sake, whichH834 you have profanedH2490 among the heathen,H1471 whereH834 H8033 you went.H935
23
And I will sanctifyH6942 my greatH1419 name,H8034 which was profanedH2490 among the heathen,H1471 whichH834 you have profanedH2490 in the middleH8432 of them; and the heathenH1471 shall knowH3045 that I am the LORD,H3068 saidH5002 the LordH136 GOD,H3069 when I shall be sanctifiedH6942 in you before their eyes.H5869
24
For I will takeH3947 you from among the heathen,H1471 and gatherH6908 you out of allH3605 countries,H776 and will bringH935 you intoH413 your own land.H127
25
Then will I sprinkleH2236 cleanH2889 waterH4325 on you, and you shall be clean:H2891 from allH3605 your filthiness,H2932 and from allH3605 your idols,H1544 will I cleanseH2891 you.
26
A newH2319 heartH3820 also will I giveH5414 you, and a newH2319 spiritH7307 will I putH5414 withinH7130 you: and I will takeH5493 awayH5493 the stonyH68 heartH3820 out of your flesh,H1320 and I will giveH5414 you an heartH3820 of flesh.H1320
27
And I will putH5414 my spiritH7307 withinH7130 you, and cause you to walkH3212 in my statutes,H2706 and you shall keepH8104 my judgments,H4941 and doH6213 them.
28
And you shall dwellH3427 in the landH776 that I gaveH5414 to your fathers;H1 and you shall be my people,H5971 and I will be your God.H430
29
I will also saveH3467 you from allH3605 your uncleannesses:H2932 and I will callH7121 for the corn,H1715 and will increaseH7235 it, and layH5414 noH3808 famineH7458 on you.
30
And I will multiplyH7235 the fruitH6529 of the tree,H6086 and the increaseH8570 of the field,H7704 that you shall receiveH3947 noH3808 moreH5750 reproachH2781 of famineH7458 among the heathen.H1471
31
Then shall you rememberH2142 your own evilH7451 ways,H1870 and your doingsH4611 that were not good,H2896 and shall loatheH6962 yourselves in your own sightH6440 for your iniquitiesH5771 and for your abominations.H8441
32
Not for your sakesH4616 doH6213 I this, saidH5002 the LordH136 GOD,H3069 be it knownH3045 to you: be ashamedH954 and confoundedH3637 for your own ways,H1870 O houseH1004 of Israel.H3478
33
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 In the dayH3117 that I shall have cleansedH2891 you from allH3605 your iniquitiesH5771 I will also cause you to dwellH3427 in the cities,H5892 and the wastesH2723 shall be built.H1129
34
And the desolateH8074 landH776 shall be tilled,H5647 whereasH8478 H834 it lay desolateH8077 in the sightH5869 of allH3605 that passedH5674 by.
35
And they shall say,H559 ThisH1977 landH776 that was desolateH8074 is become like the gardenH1588 of Eden;H5731 and the wasteH2720 and desolateH8074 and ruinedH2040 citiesH5892 are become fenced,H1219 and are inhabited.H3427
36
Then the heathenH1471 that are leftH7604 roundH5439 about you shall knowH3045 that I the LORDH3068 buildH1129 the ruinedH2040 places, and plantH5193 that that was desolate:H8074 I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 it, and I will doH6213 it.
37
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LordH136 GOD;H3069 I will yetH5750 for thisH2063 be inquiredH1875 of by the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 to doH6213 it for them; I will increaseH7235 them with menH120 like a flock.H6629
38
As the holyH6944 flock,H6629 as the flockH6629 of JerusalemH3389 in her solemnH4150 feasts;H4150 soH3651 shall the wasteH2720 citiesH5892 be filledH4390 with flocksH6629 of men:H120 and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORD.H3068
