4. The Lord said to me, “Prophesy to these bones. Say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
5. This is what the Lord God says to the bones: I will cause breath to enter you. Then you will live.
6. I will put muscles on you. I will put flesh on you. I will cover you with skin. Then I will put breath in you, and you will live. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
7. So I prophesied as I was commanded. While I prophesied, there was a noise and a rattling. The bones came together, bone to bone.
8. I looked and saw muscles come on the bones. Flesh grew, and skin covered the bones. But there was no breath in them.
