Ezekiel 37:23-28 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

23. They will no longer worship idols and do things that make them unacceptable to me. I will wash away their sin and make them clean, and I will protect them from everything that makes them unclean. They will be my people, and I will be their God.

24-25. Their king will always come from the family of my servant King David and will care for them like a shepherd. The people of Israel will faithfully obey my laws. They and their descendants will live in the land I gave my servant Jacob, just as their ancestors did.

27. and I will live among my people and be their God.

28. Every nation on earth will know that my temple is in Israel and that I have chosen the Israelites to be my people.
