Ezekiel 11:14-21

Ezekiel 11:14-21

[14] Again the word  of the LORD  came unto me, saying,  [15] Son  of man,  thy brethren,  the men  of thy kindred,  and all the house  of Israel  wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants  of Jerusalem  have said,  Get you far  from the LORD:  unto us is this land  given  in possession.  [16] Therefore say,  the Lord  GOD;  Although I have cast them far off  among the heathen,  and although I have scattered  them among the countries,  yet will I be to them as a little  sanctuary  in the countries  where they shall come.  [17] Therefore say,  the Lord  I will even gather  you from the people,  and assemble  you out of the countries  where ye have been scattered,  and I will give  you the land  of Israel.  [18] And they shall come  thither, and they shall take away  all the detestable things  thereof and all the abominations  [19] And I will give  them one  heart,  and I will put  a new  spirit  within  you; and I will take  the stony  heart  out of their flesh,  and will give  them an heart  of flesh:  [20] in my statutes,  and keep  mine ordinances,  and do  them: and they shall be my people,  and I will be their God.  [21] But as for them whose heart  walketh  after the heart  of their detestable things  and their abominations,  I will recompense  their way  upon their own heads,  saith  the Lord
