³³ “Thus says the Lord Yahweh: ‘On the day when I cleanse you from all of your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the ruins will be rebuilt. ³⁴ And the land that was desolate will be cultivated in the very place that^[a] it was desolate before the eyes of all of the persons crossing over. ³⁵ And they will say, “This desolate land^[b] has become like the garden of Eden, and the wasted and desolate and destroyed cities, now being refortified, are inhabited.” ³⁶ And the nations who are left all around, you will know that I, Yahweh, I built that which was destroyed;^[c] I planted the desolate land; I, Yahweh, I have spoken, and I will act.’
