Ezekiel 34:25-31
English Standard Version
The Lord's Covenant of Peace
25 (A)“I will make with them a covenant of peace and (B)banish wild beasts from the land, (C)so that they may dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the woods. 26 And I will make them and the places all around my hill (D)a blessing, and (E)I will send down the showers in their season; they shall be (F)showers of blessing. 27 (G)And the trees of the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase, (H)and they shall be secure in their land. And (I)they shall know that I am the Lord, when (J)I break the bars of their yoke, and (K)deliver them from the hand of those who enslaved them. 28 (L)They shall no more be a prey to the nations, (M)nor shall the beasts of the land devour them. (N)They shall dwell securely, and none shall make them afraid. 29 And I will provide for them (O)renowned plantations so that (P)they shall no more be consumed with hunger in the land, and no longer (Q)suffer the reproach of the nations. 30 And they shall know that (R)I am the Lord their God with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, declares the Lord God. 31 And you are my sheep, (S)human sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Lord God.”

New Living Translation
The Lord’s Covenant of Peace
25 “I will make a covenant of peace with my people and drive away the dangerous animals from the land. Then they will be able to camp safely in the wildest places and sleep in the woods without fear. 26 I will bless my people and their homes around my holy hill. And in the proper season I will send the showers they need. There will be showers of blessing. 27 The orchards and fields of my people will yield bumper crops, and everyone will live in safety. When I have broken their chains of slavery and rescued them from those who enslaved them, then they will know that I am the Lord. 28 They will no longer be prey for other nations, and wild animals will no longer devour them. They will live in safety, and no one will frighten them.
29 “And I will make their land famous for its crops, so my people will never again suffer from famines or the insults of foreign nations. 30 In this way, they will know that I, the Lord their God, am with them. And they will know that they, the people of Israel, are my people, says the Sovereign Lord. 31 You are my flock, the sheep of my pasture. You are my people, and I am your God. I, the Sovereign Lord, have spoken!”
