And knit me together with bones and sinews?

I will put sinews on you, make flesh grow back on you, cover you with skin and put breath in you that you may come alive; and you will know that I am the Lord.’”

And I looked, and behold, sinews were on them, and flesh grew and skin covered them; but there was no breath in them.

“You who hate good and love evil,
Who tear off their skin from them
And their flesh from their bones,

He has caused my flesh and my skin to waste away,
He has broken my bones.

Because of the burning heat of famine.

Their appearance is blacker than soot,
They are not recognized in the streets;
Their skin is shriveled on their bones,
It is withered, it has become like wood.

“Can the Ethiopian change his skin
Or the leopard his spots?
Then you also can do good
Who are accustomed to doing evil.
