Ezekiel 28:24-26
Holman Christian Standard Bible
24 “The house of Israel will no longer be hurt by[a] prickly briers or painful thorns(A) from all their neighbors who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord Yahweh.
25 “This is what the Lord God says: When I gather the house of Israel(B) from the peoples where they are scattered and demonstrate My holiness through them in the sight of the nations, then they will live in their own land, which I gave to My servant Jacob. 26 They will live there securely,(C) build houses, and plant vineyards.(D) They will live securely when I execute judgments(E) against all their neighbors who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am Yahweh their God.”
