33. Thus said the Lord GOD; In the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities. I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes shall be built.
34. And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by;
35. who said, This desolate land used to be like the garden of Eden; and these waste and desolate and ruined cities used to be fortified.
36. And the Gentiles that are left round about you shall know that I the Lord built the ruined places and planted that which was desolate; I the Lord have spoken it, and I will do it.
37. Thus hath the Lord GOD said; I will yet be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will multiply men like flocks.
38. As the holy sheep, as the sheep of Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
