24 (A)I will take you (B)from the nations and gather you from all the countries and (C)bring you into your own land. 25 (D)I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from (E)all your uncleannesses, and (F)from all your idols (G)I will cleanse you. 26 And I will give you (H)a new heart, and (I)a new spirit I will put within you. (J)And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 (K)And I will put my Spirit within you, (L)and cause you to walk in my statutes and (M)be careful to obey my rules.[a] 28 (N)You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers, and (O)you shall be my people, and I will be your God. 29 And (P)I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. And (Q)I will summon the grain and make it abundant and (R)lay no famine upon you. 30 (S)I will make the fruit of the tree and the increase of the field abundant, (T)that you may never again suffer the disgrace of famine among the nations. 31 Then (U)you will remember your evil ways, and your deeds that were not good, and you will loathe yourselves for your iniquities and your abominations. 32 (V)It is not for your sake that I will act, declares the Lord God; let that be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel.

  1. Ezekiel 36:27 Or my just decrees

24 I will take you from the nations, I will gather you from all the countries, and I will bring you to your own fertile land. 25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be cleansed of all your pollution. I will cleanse you of all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you. I will remove your stony heart from your body and replace it with a living one, 27 and I will give you my spirit so that you may walk according to my regulations and carefully observe my case laws. 28 Then you will live in the land that I gave to your ancestors, you will be my people, and I will be your God. 29 I will save you from all your uncleanness, and I will summon the grain and make it grow abundantly so that you won’t endure famine. 30 I will make abundant the orchards’ fruit and the fields’ produce so that you will never again endure the shame of famine among the nations. 31 Then you will remember your evil ways and no-good deeds, and you will feel disgust for yourselves because of your sinful and detestable practices. 32 Not for your sake do I act. This is what the Lord God proclaims. Let that be known to you! Be ashamed and be humiliated because of all your ways, house of Israel.
