25 (A)“I will make a covenant of peace with them, and (B)cause wild beasts to cease from the land; and they (C)will dwell safely in the wilderness and sleep in the woods. 26 I will make them and the places all around (D)My hill (E)a blessing; and I will (F)cause showers to come down in their season; there shall be (G)showers of blessing. 27 Then (H)the trees of the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase. They shall be safe in their land; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have (I)broken the bands of their yoke and delivered them from the hand of those who (J)enslaved them. 28 And they shall no longer be a prey for the nations, nor shall beasts of the land devour them; but (K)they shall dwell safely, and no one shall make them afraid. 29 I will raise up for them a (L)garden[a] of renown, and they shall (M)no longer be consumed with hunger in the land, (N)nor bear the shame of the Gentiles anymore. 30 Thus they shall know that (O)I, the Lord their God, am with them, and they, the house of Israel, are (P)My people,” says the Lord God.’

31 “You are My (Q)flock, the flock of My pasture; you are men, and I am your God,” says the Lord God.

  1. Ezekiel 34:29 Lit. planting place

25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. 26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. 27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them. 28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid. 29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more. 30 Thus shall they know that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord God. 31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God.
