I will provide pasture ¹  for your livestock and you will eat your fill.”

The Lord says, ¹  “I will make youths their officials; malicious young men ²  will rule over them.

You have followed the ways of your sister, so I will place her cup of judgment ¹  in your hand.

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 

I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. I will remove the heart of stone ¹  from your body and give you a heart of flesh. ² 

I will put tendons ¹  on you and muscles over you and will cover you with skin; I will put breath ²  in you and you will live. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”

“‘I will put my tabernacle ¹  in your midst and I will not abhor you. ² 

I will give you leaders ¹  who will be faithful to me. ²  They will lead you with knowledge and insight.

I will put your flesh on the mountains, and fill the valleys with your maggot-infested carcass. ¹ 

I will give you your rains in their time so that ¹  the land will give its yield and the trees of the field will produce their fruit. ² 

I will break your strong pride and make your sky like iron and your land like bronze.

I will lay your cities waste ¹  and make your sanctuaries desolate, and I will refuse to smell your soothing aromas.

then he promises, ¹  “I will send rain for your land ²  in its season, the autumn and the spring rains, ³  so that you may gather in your grain, new wine, and olive oil.

I will make Ahab’s dynasty ¹  like those of Jeroboam son of Nebat and Baasha son of Ahijah.

I will place the key ¹  to the house of David on his shoulder. When he opens the door, no one can close it; when he closes the door, no one can open it.

I am bringing my deliverance near, it is not far away; I am bringing my salvation near, ¹  it does not wait. I will save Zion; ²  I will adorn Israel with my splendor.” ³ 

I will bring on you lasting shame and lasting disgrace which will never be forgotten!’”

I will place the corpses of the people of Israel in front of their idols, ¹  and I will scatter your bones around your altars.

‘But I will take you out of the city. ¹  And I will hand you over to foreigners. I will execute judgments on you.

I will make ¹  the land desolate because they have acted unfaithfully, declares the sovereign Lord.”
