Ezekiel 36:8-12
1599 Geneva Bible
8 But you, O mountains of Israel, ye shall [a]shoot forth your branches, and bring forth your fruit to my people of Israel: for they are ready to come.
9 For behold, I come unto you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and sown.
10 And I will multiply the men upon you, even all the house of Israel wholly, and the cities shall be inhabited, and the desolate places shall be built.
11 And I will multiply upon you man and beast, and they shall increase, and bring fruit, and I will cause you to dwell after your old estate, and I will bestow benefits upon you more than [b]at the first, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
12 Yea, I will cause men to walk upon [c]you, even my people Israel, and they shall possess [d]you, and ye shall be their inheritance, and ye shall no more henceforth deprive them of men.

New International Version
8 “‘But you, mountains of Israel, will produce branches and fruit(A) for my people Israel, for they will soon come home. 9 I am concerned for you and will look on you with favor; you will be plowed and sown,(B) 10 and I will cause many people to live on you—yes, all of Israel. The towns will be inhabited and the ruins(C) rebuilt.(D) 11 I will increase the number of people and animals living on you, and they will be fruitful(E) and become numerous. I will settle people(F) on you as in the past(G) and will make you prosper more than before.(H) Then you will know that I am the Lord. 12 I will cause people, my people Israel, to live on you. They will possess you, and you will be their inheritance;(I) you will never again deprive them of their children.
