Then a spirit lifted me up and brought me to the east gate of the House of GOD, which faces eastward; and there, at the entrance of the gate, were twenty-five men, among whom I saw Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, leaders of the people.
[GOD] said to me, “O mortal, these are the men who plan iniquity and plot wickedness in this city,

Thereupon the spirit of GOD fell upon me, and I was told, “Speak: Thus said GOD: Such are your thoughts, O House of Israel; I know what comes into your mind.

Many have you slain in this city; you have filled its streets with corpses.
Assuredly, thus says the Sovereign GOD: The corpses that you have piled up in it are the meat for which it is the pot; but you shall be taken out of it.

You shall fall by the sword; I will punish you at the border of Israel. And you shall know that I am GOD.
Then you shall know that I am GOD, whose laws you did not follow and whose rules you did not obey, acting instead according to the rules of the nations around you.”
Now, as I prophesied, Pelatiah son of Benaiah dropped dead. I threw myself upon my face and cried out aloud, “Ah, my Sovereign GOD! You are wiping out the remnant of Israel!”
“O mortal, [I will save] your kinsfolk, your relatives—your next of kinbyour next of kin I.e., the exiles.—all of that very House of Israel to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem say, ‘Keep far from GOD; the land has been given as a heritage to us.’
Say then: Thus said the Sovereign GOD: I have indeed removed them far among the nations and have scattered them among the countries, and I have become to them a diminished sanctity in the countries whither they have gone.
Yet say: Thus said the Sovereign GOD: I will gather youcyou I.e., the exiles. from the peoples and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the Land of Israel.

And they shall return there, and do away with all its detestable things and all its abominations.
I will give them one heart and put a new spirit in them;dthem Heb. “you.” I will remove the heart of stone from their bodies and give them a heart of flesh,
But as for them whose heart is set upon their detestable things and their abominations, I will repay them for their conduct—declares the Sovereign GOD.”
