The Land of Israel Will Be Rebuilt

36 “Son of man,[a] speak to the mountains of Israel for me. Tell them to listen to the word of the Lord! Tell them that this is what the Lord God says: ‘The enemy said bad things against you. They said, Hurray! Now the ancient mountains[b] will be ours!’

“So speak to the mountains of Israel for me. Tell them that this is what the Lord God says: ‘The enemy destroyed your cities and attacked you from every direction. They did this so that you would belong to the other nations. Then people talked and whispered about you.’”
