10 So I prophesied (A)as he commanded me, and (B)the breath came into them, and they lived and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army.
11 Then he said to me, (C)“Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up, and (D)our hope is lost; (E)we are indeed cut off.’ 12 Therefore (F)prophesy, and say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, (G)I will open your graves and raise you from your graves, O my people. And (H)I will bring you into the land of Israel. 13 And (I)you shall know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people.
