And they will say, This land which was waste has become like the garden of Eden; and the towns which were unpeopled and wasted and pulled down are walled and peopled.

וְאָמְר֗וּ (וְ) ve. “and”

Then the rest of the nations round about you will be certain that I the Lord am the builder of the places which were pulled down and the planter of that which was waste: I the Lord have said it, and I will do it.

וְיָדְע֣וּ (וְ) ve. “and”וְעָשִֽׂיתִי׃ (וְ) ve. “and”

Like sheep for the offerings, like the sheep of Jerusalem at her fixed feasts, so the unpeopled towns will be made full of men: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

וְיָדְע֖וּ (וְ) ve. “and”

The hand of the Lord had been on me, and he took me out in the spirit of the Lord and put me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones;

וַיּוֹצִאֵ֤נִי (וַ) va “and”וַיְנִיחֵ֖נִי (וַ) va “and”

And he made me go past them round about: and I saw that there was a very great number of them on the face of the wide valley, and they were very dry.

וְהֶעֱבִירַ֥נִי (וְ) ve. “and”

And he said to me, Son of man, is it possible for these bones to come to life? And I made answer, and said, It is for you to say, O Lord.

וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”וָאֹמַ֕ר (וָ) va. “and”

And again he said to me, Be a prophet to these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, give ear to the word of the Lord.

וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ (וְ) ve. “and”

This is what the Lord has said to these bones: See, I will make breath come into you so that you may come to life;

וִחְיִיתֶֽם׃ (וִ) vi “and”

And I will put muscles on you and make flesh come on you, and put skin over you, and breath into you, so that you may have life; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

So I gave the word as I was ordered: and at my words there was a shaking of the earth, and the bones came together, bone to bone.

וְנִבֵּ֖אתִי (וְ) ve. “and”וַֽיְהִי־ (וַֽ) va “and”וַתִּקְרְב֣וּ (וַ) va. “and”

And looking I saw that there were muscles on them and flesh came up, and they were covered with skin: but there was no breath in them.

And he said to me, Be a prophet to the wind, be a prophet, son of man, and say to the wind, The Lord has said: Come from the four winds, O wind, breathing on these dead so that they may come to life.

וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”וְאָמַרְתָּ֨ (וְ) ve. “and”

And I gave the word at his orders, and breath came into them, and they came to life and got up on their feet, a very great army.

Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are all the children of Israel: and see, they are saying, Our bones have become dry our hope is gone, we are cut off completely.

וַיֹּאמֶר֮ (וַ) va “and”וְאָבְדָ֥ה (וְ) ve. “and”

For this cause be a prophet to them, and say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am opening the resting-places of your dead, and I will make you come up out of your resting-places, O my people; and I will take you into the land of Israel.

וְאָמַרְתָּ֜ (וְ) ve. “and”וְהַעֲלֵיתִ֥י (וְ) ve. “and”וְהֵבֵאתִ֥י (וְ) ve. “and”

And you will be certain that I am the Lord by my opening the resting-places of your dead and making you come up out of your resting-places, O my people.

וִֽידַעְתֶּ֖ם (וִֽ) vi. “and”

And I will put my spirit in you, so that you may come to life, and I will give you a rest in your land: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it and have done it, says the Lord.
