Ezekiel 28:24-26
English Standard Version
24 “And for the house of Israel (A)there shall be no more a brier to prick or (B)a thorn to hurt them among all their neighbors (C)who have treated them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord God.
Israel Gathered in Security
25 “Thus says the Lord God: (D)When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and (E)manifest my holiness in them in the sight of the nations, (F)then they shall dwell in their own land that I gave to my servant Jacob. 26 (G)And they shall dwell securely in it, and they shall build houses and plant vineyards. They shall dwell securely, (H)when I execute judgments upon all their neighbors (I)who have treated them with contempt. (J)Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.”

New Living Translation
24 No longer will Israel’s scornful neighbors
prick and tear at her like briers and thorns.
For then they will know
that I am the Sovereign Lord.
Restoration for Israel
25 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: The people of Israel will again live in their own land, the land I gave my servant Jacob. For I will gather them from the distant lands where I have scattered them. I will reveal to the nations of the world my holiness among my people. 26 They will live safely in Israel and build homes and plant vineyards. And when I punish the neighboring nations that treated them with contempt, they will know that I am the Lord their God.”
