Ezekiel 36:6-12
English Standard Version
6 Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say to (A)the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys, Thus says the Lord God: (B)Behold, I have spoken in my jealous wrath, because you have suffered (C)the reproach of the nations. 7 Therefore thus says the Lord God: (D)I swear that the nations that are all around you (E)shall themselves suffer reproach.
8 “But you, O mountains of Israel, (F)shall shoot forth your branches and yield your fruit to my people Israel, for (G)they will soon come home. 9 For (H)behold, I am for you, and I will turn to you, and (I)you shall be tilled and sown. 10 And (J)I will multiply people on you, the whole house of Israel, all of it. (K)The cities shall be inhabited and the waste places rebuilt. 11 And I will multiply on you (L)man and beast, and (M)they shall multiply and be fruitful. And I will cause you to be inhabited as in (N)your former times, and (O)will do more good to you than ever before. (P)Then you will know that I am the Lord. 12 I will let people walk on you, even my people Israel. (Q)And they shall possess you, and you shall be their inheritance, and you shall no longer (R)bereave them of children.
