Ezekiel 36:10-15
36:10 I will multiply your people
– the whole house of Israel, all of it. The cities will be populated and the ruins rebuilt.
36:11 I will increase the number of people and animals on you; they will increase and be fruitful.
I will cause you to be inhabited as in ancient times, and will do more good for you than at the beginning of your history.
Then you will know that I am the
Lord.
36:12 I will lead people, my people Israel, across you; they will possess you and you will become their inheritance. No longer will you bereave them of their children.
36:13 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says: Because they are saying to you, “You are a devourer of men, and bereave your nation of children,”
36:14 therefore you will no longer devour people and no longer bereave your nation of children, declares the sovereign Lord.
36:15 I will no longer subject you to the nations’ insults; no longer will you bear the shame of the peoples, and no longer will you bereave your nation, declares the sovereign Lord.’”
Ezekiel 36:37
36:37 “This is what the sovereign Lord says: I will allow the house of Israel to ask me to do this for them: I will multiply their people like sheep.
