Ezekiel 37:5-10

New International Version

⁵ This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath^[a] enter you, and you will come to life.^{(A) 6} I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.^(B)’”

⁷ So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. ⁸ I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.

⁹ Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath;^(C) prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds^(D) and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’” ¹⁰ So I prophesied as he commanded^(E) me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.^(F)
