Ezekiel 37:16-22

Leeser(i) 16 But thou, son of man, take unto thyself one stick of wood, and write upon it, “For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions;” then take another stick, and write upon it, “For Joseph,—the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:” 17 And join them one to the other unto thee as one stick; and they shall become one in thy hand. 18 And if the children of thy people should say unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not tell us what thou meanest by these? 19 Then speak unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph,—which is in the hand of Ephraim,—and the tribes of Israel his companions, and will lay them upon him, even the stick of Judah, and make them into one stick, and they shall be one in my hand. 20 And the sticks whereon thou shalt have written shall be in thy hand before their eyes. 21 And speak unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, whither they are gone, and I will gather them from every side, and bring them unto their own land; 22 And I will make them into one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be to them all for king; and they shall not be any more two nations, nor shall they at any time be divided into two kingdoms any more:
