"The desolate land will be plowed, instead of being desolate in the sight of everyone who passes by."
— Ezekiel 36:34, NET Bible
“And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.”
“And the land that was desolate shall be tilled, whereas it was a desolation in the sight of all that passed by. ”
“The land that was desolate shall be tilled, whereas it was a desolation in the sight of all who passed by.”
“And the desolate land shall be tilled, which before was waste in the sight of all that passed by,”
“And the land which was waste will be farmed, in place of being a waste in the eyes of everyone who went by.”
“And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.”
Then you will remember your evil behavior and your deeds which were not good; you will loathe yourselves on account of your sins and your abominable deeds.
Understand that it is not for your sake I am about to act, declares the Sovereign LORD. Be ashamed and embarrassed by your behavior, O house of Israel.
“‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: In the day I cleanse you from all your sins, I will populate the cities and the ruins will be rebuilt.
The desolate land will be plowed, instead of being desolate in the sight of everyone who passes by.
They will say,“This desolate land has become like the garden of Eden; the ruined, desolate, and destroyed cities are now fortified and inhabited.”
Then the nations which remain around you will know that I, the LORD, have rebuilt the ruins and replanted what was desolate. I, the LORD, have spoken– and I will do it!’
“This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will allow the house of Israel to ask me to do this for them: I will multiply their people like sheep.
