Also, thou son{H1121} of man{H120}, prophesy{H5012}{(H8734)} unto the mountains{H2022} of Israel{H3478}, and say{H559}{(H8804)}, Ye mountains{H2022} of Israel{H3478}, hear{H8085}{(H8798)} the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}:

Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Because the enemy{H341}{(H8802)} hath said{H559}{(H8804)} against you, Aha{H1889}, even the ancient{H5769} high places{H1116} are ours in possession{H4181}:

Therefore prophesy{H5012}{(H8734)} and say{H559}{(H8804)}, Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Because they have made you desolate{H8074}{(H8800)}, and swallowed you up{H7602}{(H8800)} on every side{H5439}, that ye might be a possession{H4181} unto the residue{H7611} of the heathen{H1471}, and ye are taken up{H5927}{(H8735)} in the lips{H8193} of talkers{H3956}, and are an infamy{H1681} of the people{H5971}:

Therefore, ye mountains{H2022} of Israel{H3478}, hear{H8085}{(H8798)} the word{H1697} of the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069} to the mountains{H2022}, and to the hills{H1389}, to the rivers{H650}, and to the valleys{H1516}, to the desolate{H8074}{(H8802)} wastes{H2723}, and to the cities{H5892} that are forsaken{H5800}{(H8737)}, which became a prey{H957} and derision{H3933} to the residue{H7611} of the heathen{H1471} that are round about{H5439};

Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Surely in the fire{H784} of my jealousy{H7068} have I spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} against the residue{H7611} of the heathen{H1471}, and against all Idumea{H123}, which have appointed{H5414}{(H8804)} my land{H776} into their possession{H4181} with the joy{H8057} of all their heart{H3824}, with despiteful{H7589} minds{H5315}, to cast it out{H4054} for a prey{H957}.

Prophesy{H5012}{(H8734)} therefore concerning the land{H127} of Israel{H3478}, and say{H559}{(H8804)} unto the mountains{H2022}, and to the hills{H1389}, to the rivers{H650}, and to the valleys{H1516}, Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Behold, I have spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} in my jealousy{H7068} and in my fury{H2534}, because ye have borne{H5375}{(H8804)} the shame{H3639} of the heathen{H1471}:

Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; I have lifted up{H5375}{(H8804)} mine hand{H3027}, Surely the heathen{H1471} that are about{H5439} you, they shall bear{H5375}{(H8799)} their shame{H3639}.

But ye, O mountains{H2022} of Israel{H3478}, ye shall shoot forth{H5414}{(H8799)} your branches{H6057}, and yield{H5375}{(H8799)} your fruit{H6529} to my people{H5971} of Israel{H3478}; for they are at hand{H7126}{(H8765)} to come{H935}{(H8800)}.

For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn{H6437}{(H8804)} unto you, and ye shall be tilled{H5647}{(H8738)} and sown{H2232}{(H8738)}:

And I will multiply{H7235}{(H8689)} men{H120} upon you, all the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478}, even all of it: and the cities{H5892} shall be inhabited{H3427}{(H8738)}, and the wastes{H2723} shall be builded{H1129}{(H8735)}:

And I will multiply{H7235}{(H8689)} upon you man{H120} and beast{H929}; and they shall increase{H7235}{(H8804)} and bring fruit{H6509}{(H8804)}: and I will settle{H3427}{(H8689)} you after your old estates{H6927}, and will do better{H2895}{(H8689)} unto you than at your beginnings{H7221}: and ye shall know{H3045}{(H8804)} that I am the LORD{H3068}.

Yea, I will cause men{H120} to walk{H3212}{(H8689)} upon you, even my people{H5971} Israel{H3478}; and they shall possess{H3423}{(H8804)} thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance{H5159}, and thou shalt no more{H3254}{(H8686)} henceforth bereave{H7921}{(H8763)} them of men.

Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Because they say{H559}{(H8802)} unto you, Thou land devourest up{H398}{(H8802)} men{H120}, and hast bereaved{H7921}{(H8764)} thy nations{H1471};

Therefore thou shalt devour{H398}{(H8799)} men{H120} no more, neither bereave{H7921}{(H8762)}{H3782}{(H8762)} thy nations{H1471} any more, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}.

Neither will I cause men to hear{H8085}{(H8686)} in thee the shame{H3639} of the heathen{H1471} any more, neither shalt thou bear{H5375}{(H8799)} the reproach{H2781} of the people{H5971} any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nations{H1471} to fall{H3782}{(H8686)} any more, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}.

Moreover the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068} came unto me, saying{H559}{(H8800)},

Son{H1121} of man{H120}, when the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478} dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} in their own land{H127}, they defiled{H2930}{(H8762)} it by their own way{H1870} and by their doings{H5949}: their way{H1870} was before{H6440} me as the uncleanness{H2932} of a removed woman{H5079}.

Wherefore I poured{H8210}{(H8799)} my fury{H2534} upon them for the blood{H1818} that they had shed{H8210}{(H8804)} upon the land{H776}, and for their idols{H1544} wherewith they had polluted{H2930}{(H8765)} it:

And I scattered{H6327}{(H8686)} them among the heathen{H1471}, and they were dispersed{H2219}{(H8735)} through the countries{H776}: according to their way{H1870} and according to their doings{H5949} I judged{H8199}{(H8804)} them.

And when they entered{H935}{(H8799)} unto the heathen{H1471}, whither they went{H935}{(H8804)}, they profaned{H2490}{(H8762)} my holy{H6944} name{H8034}, when they said{H559}{(H8800)} to them, These are the people{H5971} of the LORD{H3068}, and are gone forth{H3318}{(H8804)} out of his land{H776}.

But I had pity{H2550}{(H8799)} for mine holy{H6944} name{H8034}, which the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478} had profaned{H2490}{(H8765)} among the heathen{H1471}, whither they went{H935}{(H8804)}.

Therefore say{H559}{(H8798)} unto the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478}, Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; I do{H6213}{(H8802)} not this for your sakes, O house{H1004} of Israel{H3478}, but for mine holy{H6944} name's{H8034} sake, which ye have profaned{H2490}{(H8765)} among the heathen{H1471}, whither ye went{H935}{(H8804)}.

And I will sanctify{H6942}{(H8765)} my great{H1419} name{H8034}, which was profaned{H2490}{(H8794)} among the heathen{H1471}, which ye have profaned{H2490}{(H8765)} in the midst{H8432} of them; and the heathen{H1471} shall know{H3045}{(H8804)} that I am the LORD{H3068}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, when I shall be sanctified{H6942}{(H8736)} in you before their eyes{H5869}.

For I will take{H3947}{(H8804)} you from among{H4480} the heathen{H1471}, and gather{H6908}{(H8765)} you out of all countries{H776}, and will bring{H935}{(H8689)} you into your own land{H127}.

Then will I sprinkle{H2236}{(H8804)} clean{H2889} water{H4325} upon you, and ye shall be clean{H2891}{(H8804)}: from all your filthiness{H2932}, and from all your idols{H1544}, will I cleanse{H2891}{(H8762)} you.

A new{H2319} heart{H3820} also will I give{H5414}{(H8804)} you, and a new{H2319} spirit{H7307} will I put{H5414}{(H8799)} within{H7130} you: and I will take away{H5493}{(H8689)} the stony{H68} heart{H3820} out of your flesh{H1320}, and I will give{H5414}{(H8804)} you an heart{H3820} of flesh{H1320}.

And I will put{H5414}{(H8799)} my spirit{H7307} within{H7130} you, and cause{H6213}{(H8804)} you to walk{H3212}{(H8799)} in my statutes{H2706}, and ye shall keep{H8104}{(H8799)} my judgments{H4941}, and do{H6213}{(H8804)} them.

And ye shall dwell{H3427}{(H8804)} in the land{H776} that I gave{H5414}{(H8804)} to your fathers{H1}; and ye shall be my people{H5971}, and I will be your God{H430}.

I will also save{H3467}{(H8689)} you from all your uncleannesses{H2932}: and I will call{H7121}{(H8804)} for the corn{H1715}, and will increase{H7235}{(H8689)} it, and lay{H5414}{(H8799)} no famine{H7458} upon you.

And I will multiply{H7235}{(H8689)} the fruit{H6529} of the tree{H6086}, and the increase{H8570} of the field{H7704}, that ye shall receive{H3947}{(H8799)} no more reproach{H2781} of famine{H7458} among the heathen{H1471}.

Then shall ye remember{H2142}{(H8804)} your own evil{H7451} ways{H1870}, and your doings{H4611} that were not good{H2896}, and shall lothe{H6962}{(H8738)} yourselves in your own sight{H6440} for your iniquities{H5771} and for your abominations{H8441}.

Not for your sakes do{H6213}{(H8802)} I this, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, be it known{H3045}{(H8735)} unto you: be ashamed{H954}{(H8798)} and confounded{H3637}{(H8734)} for your own ways{H1870}, O house{H1004} of Israel{H3478}.

Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; In the day{H3117} that I shall have cleansed{H2891}{(H8763)} you from all your iniquities{H5771} I will also cause you to dwell{H3427}{(H8689)} in the cities{H5892}, and the wastes{H2723} shall be builded{H1129}{(H8738)}.

And the desolate{H8074}{(H8737)} land{H776} shall be tilled{H5647}{(H8735)}, whereas it lay desolate{H8077} in the sight{H5869} of all that passed by{H5674}{(H8802)}.

And they shall say{H559}{(H8804)}, This{H1977} land{H776} that was desolate{H8074}{(H8737)} is become like the garden{H1588} of Eden{H5731}; and the waste{H2720} and desolate{H8074}{(H8737)} and ruined{H2040}{(H8737)} cities{H5892} are become fenced{H1219}{(H8803)}, and are inhabited{H3427}{(H8804)}.

Then the heathen{H1471} that are left{H7604}{(H8735)} round about{H5439} you shall know{H3045}{(H8804)} that I the LORD{H3068} build{H1129}{(H8804)} the ruined{H2040}{(H8737)} places, and plant{H5193}{(H8804)} that that was desolate{H8074}{(H8737)}: I the LORD{H3068} have spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} it, and I will do{H6213}{(H8804)} it.

Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; I will yet for this be enquired{H1875}{(H8735)} of by the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478}, to do{H6213}{(H8800)} it for them; I will increase{H7235}{(H8686)} them with men{H120} like a flock{H6629}.

As the holy{H6944} flock{H6629}, as the flock{H6629} of Jerusalem{H3389} in her solemn feasts{H4150}; so shall the waste{H2720} cities{H5892} be filled{H4392} with flocks{H6629} of men{H120}: and they shall know{H3045}{(H8804)} that I am the LORD{H3068}.
