Ezekiel 37:4-10

4Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD ! 5This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath The Hebrew for this word can also mean wind or spirit (see verses 6-14). enter you, and you will come to life.

6I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD .’ ” 7So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone.

8I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them. 9Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’ ”

10So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.
