Ezekiel 11:19-21

Context
11:19 I will give them one heart and I will put a new spirit within them; 1  I will remove the hearts of stone from their bodies 2  and I will give them tender hearts, 3  11:20 so that they may follow my statutes and observe my regulations and carry them out. Then they will be my people, and I will be their God. 4  11:21 But those whose hearts are devoted to detestable things and abominations, I hereby repay them for what they have done, 5  says the sovereign Lord.”
