14My spirite also wil I put in you, and ye shal liue, I wil set you againe in your owne lande: and ye shall knowe that I the Lorde haue sayde it, and fulfilled it in deede, sayth the Lorde.
15The word of the Lord came vnto me, saying:
16Thou sonne of man, take one sticke, and write vpon it, Unto Iuda and to the children of Israel his companios. Then take another sticke and write vpon it, Unto Ioseph the stocke of Ephraim, & to all the housholde of Israel his companions.
17And ioyne thee them one to another into one sticke: and they shalbe as one in thy hande.
18Now if the children of thy people speake vnto thee, saying: Wilt thou not shew vs what thou meanest by these?
19Then geue them this aunswere, thus sayth the Lorde God: Beholde, I will take the stocke of Ioseph, whiche is in the hand of Ephraim, and of the tribes of Israel his felowes, and wil put them with him, euen with the stocke of Iuda, and make them one stocke, and they shalbe one in my hande.
20And the stickes where vpon thou wrytest, shalt thou haue in thy hand, that they may see.
