Ezekiel 39:21-29 - Israel's Restoration To God
21 I will show my greatness among the nations. All the nations will see how I will turn my power against them to punish them. 22 From that day on, the people of Israel will know that I am Jehovah their God. 23 Then the nations will know that the people of Israel went into captivity because they did wrong and rebelled against me. I hid my face (withdrew my support) from them and handed them over to their enemies. They were killed in battle. 24 I paid them back for their uncleanness and their sins. I hid my face from them.'
25 This is what the Lord Jehovah says: 'Now I will bring back Jacob's captives and have compassion for the whole nation of Israel. I will stand up for (show exclusive devotion for) my holy name. 26 When they live safely in a land where no one will frighten them, they will forget their shame and all the unfaithful things they have done against me. 27 I will bring them back from the other nations and gather them from the countries of their enemies. Many nations will see that I am holy.' 28 My people will know that I am Jehovah their God. I sent them into captivity among the nations, and I brought them back again to their land. I left none of them behind. 29 I will no longer hide my face (withdraw my support) from them. I will pour out my Spirit on the nation of Israel,' declares the Lord Jehovah.
