New Testament

Ezekiel 36:28-35 New King James Version (NKJV)

28. Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God.

29. I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. I will call for the grain and multiply it, and bring no famine upon you.

30. And I will multiply the fruit of your trees and the increase of your fields, so that you need never again bear the reproach of famine among the nations.

31. Then you will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations.

32. Not for your sake do I do this,” says the Lord God, “let it be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel!”

33. ‘Thus says the Lord God: “On the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will also enable you to dwell in the cities, and the ruins shall be rebuilt.

34. The desolate land shall be tilled instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who pass by.

35. So they will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the wasted, desolate, and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.’
