1: Yehoweh’s Hand happened to be over Me (Son of Man – not Ezekiel) and, in Yehoweh’s Spirit, He makes Me emerge and makes Me rest in the middle of The Valley. She was full of bones.
2: And He had made Me cross over to them. Surrounded, surrounded.
And Behold! A great many over the valley face.
And Behold! Very dry.
3: And He says to Me, “Son of man, can they (fem) live? These bones?”
And I say, “Lord Yehoweh, You knew (that)”.
4: And He says to Me, “ Be speaking / singing by inspiration ( prophesy) to the bones – these – and say to them: The bones, the dried, hear Yehoweh’s speech.
5: Thus says Lord Yehoweh to these bones: Behold! I made a spirit traverse into you and you lived.
6: And I had given you tendons.
And I had made muscle to ascend on you.
And I had skin covered over you.
And I gave a spirit in you had lived.
And you had known that I am Yehoweh.”
7: So Inspiration spoke Me ( nifal of prophesy) as I was commanded. And there happens a noise as inspiration spoke me (nifal infin) and behold! An earthquake!
And bones come near, a bone over his bone.
8: And I looked and behold – tendons and muscle had ascended upon them and skin covers from above and over them . And a spirit was not in them.
9: And He says to Me,
“ Be speaking / singing by inspiration ( prophesy) to the Spirit,
Be speaking / singing by inspiration ( prophesy) ,Son of Man.
And You said thus to The Spirit:
Thus said Lord Yehoweh –
From 4 spirits – traverse (come / go – fem) – (O) The Spirit!
And blow (fem) on these killed!
And they live!
10: And I made Myself inspired and spoke/sang (Hitpael) as He had commanded Me.
And The Spirit, she comes/goes to them and they live and stand on their feet – a very, very great army!
Pause and think about that!
11: And He says to Me, Son of man, these, the bones (are) all a house of Israel.
Behold them: ‘Ashamed, our-bones-are destroyed, our-hope-is-cut-off-from-us’ sayers.
12: So then, be speaking / singing by inspiration ( prophesy).
And You said thus to them:
Thus said Lord Yehoweh, “I, opener of your graves, I caused you – you – to ascend up from your graves, My people. And I caused you to traverse the fields of Israel.
Pause and think about that!
13: And then you knew I, Yehoweh, in opening your graves and causing you to ascend from your graves, My people,
14: I gave My Spirit into you and you lived. And I caused you to rest in your own fields. And you knew that I, Yehoweh, had declared it and I, Word Yehoweh, had done it. Phew!
15: And Yehoweh’s speech happens to say over Me,
16: “And for You, Son of Man, take for yourself one wood / tree / stick (Etz vs etzem bone) and write on it for Judah (God-praise) and sons of Israel’s companions.
And take one stick and write on it ‘Ephraim’s (covered / fruitful) stick’ for Joseph (added-on, Joseph replaces Ephraim Rev 7:4-8 vs Num 1:4-16) and for all house of Israel’s companions.
17: And bring them near to Yourself, one to one. And it became as ones (plural of one! – used 4 other times to imply a few merging as one – Englishman’s Gen 11:1,27:44, 29:20, Dan 11:4) in Your Hand.
18: And when sons of Your people speak to You to say, “ Will You not reveal to us what these are to You?”
19: Say to them, “Thus said Lord Yehoweh – Behold, I (am a) taker of Joseph’s stick which is in Ephraim’s hand and rods /tribes of Israel’s companions.
And over it, I gave them The stick of Judah.
And made them one stick.
And it was one in My Hand.”
20: And it happens that those sticks on which You write (Joseph and Israel’s companions’ sticks) are in Your Hand for their eyes.
21: And declare to them, Thus said Lord Yehoweh: Behold, I (am a) taker of sons of Israel from the middle of the unbelieving nations – wherever they had walked – there.
And I gathered-to-collect (kavatz) them from surroundings.
And I made them traverse (come/go) to their own fields (adamah – soil where roots grow, from where Adam comes).
22: And I did them to one unbelieving nation in a land in mountains of Israel.
And there happens to be one king for them all.
To a king, there happens to be no longer two unbelieving nations. And they are never again split into 2 kingdoms again.
23: And no more are they making themselves pollute themselves with their manufactured idols (of wood vs sticks/wood above) and their abominations and all their rebellious-sins.
And I caused them to be saved from all their residences in which they have missed- the- mark-sinned (katha).
And I purified them.
And they were a people for Me.
And I AM (ehiyeh) to them their God.
24:: And my servant David is a king over them.
And HE IS ( yihyeh) one Shepherd to them.
And they walk to all My Judgements.
And they watch all My commandments and do them.
25: And they permanently resided in the land which I had given to My servant, Jacob and where your fathers dwelt.
And over there they dwelt (permanently resided) – and their children and their children’s children forever.
And My servant David (is) a Prince to them forever.
26: And I had cut a covenant of peace with them, a covenant forever happens to be with them and I have them and caused them to increase.
And I gave them a holy place in their midst forever.
27: And it happened to be My Tabernacle with them forever. And I had happened to be for them, their God and they happen to be for Me, My people.
28: And the unbelieving nations knew that I am Yehoweh, Sanctifier of Israel when My Holy Place is happening in their midst forever.
Pause and think about that!
Prayer:
O Son of Man who speaks to rebuild our infrastructure and Yehoweh, who miraculously, with the Holy Spirit, brings new life again, bring us, Your added-on and chosen people together – an unbelieving nation – but one kingdom under TheKing of David’s line and under Your permanent covenant of peace. Your holy place is amidst us, Yehoweh, and You Tabernacle with us for we are Your people and You are our God.
