Ezekiel 36:22-28
Christian Standard Bible
22 “Therefore, say to the house of Israel, ‘This is what the Lord God says: It is not for your sake that I will act,(A) house of Israel, but for my holy name,(B) which you profaned among the nations where you went. 23 I will honor the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations—the name you have profaned among them. The nations will know that I am the Lord—this is the declaration of the Lord God—when I demonstrate my holiness through you in their sight.(C)
24 “‘For I will take you from the nations and gather you from all the countries, and will bring you into your own land.(D) 25 I will also sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean.(E) I will cleanse you from all your impurities and all your idols.(F) 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you;(G) I will remove your heart of stone[a] and give you a heart of flesh.(H) 27 I will place my Spirit within you(I) and cause you to follow my statutes and carefully observe my ordinances.(J) 28 You will live in the land that I gave your ancestors;(K) you will be my people, and I will be your God.(L)
