Ezekiel 36:33-36
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
33 Thus says the Lord God: On the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the towns to be inhabited, and the waste places shall be rebuilt. 34 The land that was desolate shall be tilled, instead of being the desolation that it was in the sight of all who passed by. 35 And they will say, “This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden, and the waste and desolate and ruined towns are now inhabited and fortified.”(A) 36 Then the nations that are left all around you shall know that I, the Lord, have rebuilt the ruined places and replanted that which was desolate; I, the Lord, have spoken, and I will do it.(B)

International Standard Version
The Restoration of Israel’s Cities
33 “This is what the Lord God says: ‘At the same time[a] that I cleanse you from all of your guilt, I’ll make your cities become inhabited again and the desolate wastelands will be rebuilt. 34 The desolate fields will be cultivated, replacing the former wasteland that everyone who passed by in times past[b] had noticed. 35 They will say, “This wasteland has become like the garden of Eden, and what used to be desolate ruins are now fortified and inhabited.” 36 Then the surviving people that live around you will learn that I, the Lord, have rebuilt these ruins and have cultivated these pastures that used to be desolate wastelands. I, the Lord, have spoken this, and I’m going to bring it about!’
