24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.

25 Then will I pour clean [a]water upon you, and ye shall be clean: yea, from all your filthiness, and from all your idols will I cleanse you.

26 (A)A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you, and I will take away the stony heart out of your body, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments and do them.

28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers, and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

29 I will also deliver you from all your filthiness, and I will call for [b]corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.

30 For I will multiply the fruit of the trees, and the increase of the field, that ye shall bear no more the reproach of famine among the heathen.

31 Then shall ye remember your own wicked ways, and your deeds that were not good, and shall judge yourselves worthy to have been [c]destroyed for your iniquities, and for your abominations.

32 Be it known unto you that I do not this for your sakes, saith the Lord God: therefore, O ye house of Israel, be ashamed and confounded for your own ways.
