Ezekiel 36:35-37
1599 Geneva Bible
35 For they said, This waste land was like the garden of Eden, and these waste, and desolate, and ruinous cities were strong, and were inhabited.
36 Then the residue of the heathen, that are left round about you, shall [a]know that I the Lord build the ruinous places, and plant the desolate places: I the Lord have spoken it, and will do it.
37 Thus saith the Lord God, I will yet for this be sought of the house of Israel, to perform it unto them: I will increase them with men like a flock.
