20 When they came to the nations, wherever they went, they aprofaned My holy name—when they said of them, ‘These are the people of the Lord, and yet they have gone out of His land.’
21 But I had concern afor My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations wherever they went.
22 “Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, abut for My holy name’s sake, which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went.
23 And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord,” says the Lord God, “when I am ahallowed in you before their eyes.
24 For aI will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land.
25 aThen I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you bfrom all your filthiness and from all your idols.
26 I will give you a anew heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
27 I will put My aSpirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.
28 aThen you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; byou shall be My people, and I will be your God.
29 I will adeliver you from all your uncleannesses. bI will call for the grain and multiply it, and cbring no famine upon you.
30 aAnd I will multiply the fruit of your trees and the increase of your fields, so that you need never again bear the reproach of famine among the nations.
31 Then ayou will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not good; and you bwill loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations.
