Ezekiel 37:12-17

New American Standard Bible

¹² Therefore prophesy and say to them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: “Behold, I am going to open your graves and ^(A)cause you to come up out of your graves, My people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel. ¹³ Then you will know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves and caused you to come up out of your graves, My people. ¹⁴ And I will ^(B)put My ^[a]Spirit within you and you will come to life, and I will place you on your own land. Then you will know that I, the Lord, have spoken and done it,” declares the Lord.’”

Reunion of Judah and Israel

¹⁵ The word of the Lord came again to me, saying, ¹⁶ “Now you, son of man, take for yourself ^(C)one stick and write on it, ‘For ^(D)Judah and for the sons of Israel, his companions’; then take another stick and write on it, ‘For ^(E)Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and all the house of Israel, his companions.’ ¹⁷ Then ^(F)put them together for yourself one to another into one stick, so that they may become one in your hand.
