English Standard Version
Ezekiel 37:10-17
English Standard Version
10 So I prophesied (A)as he commanded me, and (B)the breath came into them, and they lived and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army.
11 Then he said to me, (C)“Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up, and (D)our hope is lost; (E)we are indeed cut off.’ 12 Therefore (F)prophesy, and say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, (G)I will open your graves and raise you from your graves, O my people. And (H)I will bring you into the land of Israel. 13 And (I)you shall know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people. 14 And (J)I will put my Spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I am the Lord; (K)I have spoken, and I will do it, declares the Lord.”
I Will Be Their God; They Shall Be My People
15 The word of the Lord came to me: 16 (L)“Son of man, (M)take a stick[a] and write on it, ‘For (N)Judah, and (O)the people of Israel associated with him’; then take another stick and write on it, ‘For (P)Joseph (the stick of (Q)Ephraim) and all the house of Israel associated with him.’ 17 And (R)join them one to another into one stick, that (S)they may become (T)one in your hand.

Ezekiel 37:10-17
New International Version
10 So I prophesied as he commanded(A) me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.(B)
11 Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’(C) 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel.(D) 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord,(E) when I open your graves and bring you up from them.(F) 14 I will put my Spirit(G) in you and you will live, and I will settle(H) you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.(I)’”
One Nation Under One King
15 The word of the Lord came to me: 16 “Son of man, take a stick of wood and write on it, ‘Belonging to Judah and the Israelites(J) associated with him.(K)’ Then take another stick of wood, and write on it, ‘Belonging to Joseph (that is, to Ephraim) and all the Israelites associated with him.’ 17 Join them together into one stick so that they will become one in your hand.(L)
