The theme will be:-“That
they may be one in your hand.” Ezekiel - World English
Bible
37:15 The word of Yahweh came again to
me, saying,
37:16 You, son of man, take one stick, and write on it, For Judah,
and for the children of Israel his
companions: then take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph,
the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his
companions:
37:17 and join them for you one to another into one stick, that they
may become one in your hand.
37:18 When the children of your people shall speak to you, saying,
Will you not show us what you mean by these?
37:19 tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will take the
stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of
Israel his companions; and I will put them with it, [even] with the
stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my
hand.
37:20 The sticks whereon you write shall be in your hand before
their eyes.
37:21 Say to them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will take
the children of Israel from among the nations, where they are gone,
and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own
land:
37:22 and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains
of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be
no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms
any more at all;
37:23 neither shall they defile themselves any more with their
idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their
transgressions; but I will save them out of all their
dwelling-places, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them:
so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
37:24 My servant David shall be king over them; and they all shall
have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my ordinances, and
observe my statutes, and do them.
37:25 They shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my
servant, in which your fathers lived; and they shall dwell therein,
they, and their children, and their children's children, forever:
and David my servant shall be their prince for ever.
37:26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall
be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will place them, and
multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them
forevermore.
37:27 My tent also shall be with them; and I will be their God, and
they shall be my people.
37:28 The nations shall know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies Israel,
when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them forevermore.
