036:012 Yes, I will cause men to walk on you, even my people Israel;
and they shall possess you, and you shall be their inheritance,
and you shall no more henceforth bereave them of children.
036:013 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because they say to you,
You [land] are a devourer of men, and have been a bereaver
of your nation;
036:014 therefore you shall devour men no more, neither bereave your
nation any more, says the Lord Yahweh;
036:015 neither will I let you hear any more the shame of the nations,
neither shall you bear the reproach of the peoples any more,
neither shall you cause your nation to stumble any more,
says the Lord Yahweh.
036:016 Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
036:017 Son of man, when the house of Israel lived in their own land,
they defiled it by their way and by their doings:
their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman
in her impurity.
036:018 Therefore I poured out my wrath on them for the blood which they
had poured out on the land, and because they had defiled it
with their idols;
036:019 and I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed
through the countries: according to their way and according
to their doings I judged them.
036:020 When they came to the nations, where they went, they profaned

Lord Yahweh: I don't do [this] for your sake, house of Israel,
but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations,
where you went.
036:023 I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned among
the nations, which you have profaned in the midst of them;
and the nations shall know that I am Yahweh, says the Lord Yahweh,
when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
036:024 For I will take you from among the nations, and gather you out
of all the countries, and will bring you into your own land.
036:025 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean:
from all your filthiness, and from all your idols,
will I cleanse you.
036:026 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 flesh,
and I will give you a heart of flesh.
036:027 I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in
my statutes, and you shall keep my ordinances, and do them.
036:028 You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers;
