¹There hath been upon me a hand of Jehovah, and He taketh me forth in the Spirit of Jehovah, and doth place me in the midst of the valley, and it is full of bones,

¹Issanda käsi tuli mu peale; ja Issand viis mind Vaimus välja ning pani mu maha keset orgu - ja see oli täis luid.

²and He causeth me to pass over by them, all round about, and lo, very many [are] on the face of the valley, and lo, very dry.

²Siis ta viis mu neist ümbertringi mööda, ja vaata, neid oli oru põhjas väga palju, ja vaata, need olid väga kuivanud.

³And He saith unto me, `Son of man, do these bones live?` And I say, `O Lord Jehovah, Thou — Thou hast known.`

³Ja ta küsis minult: 'Inimesepoeg, kas need luud peaksid saama elavaks?' Aga mina vastasin: 'Issand Jumal, seda tead sina!'

⁴And He saith unto me, `Prophesy concerning these bones, and thou hast said unto them: O dry bones, hear a word of Jehovah:

⁴Siis ta ütles mulle: 'Kuuluta prohvetlikult nendele luudele ja ütle neile: Kuivanud luud, kuulge Issanda sõna!

⁵Thus said the Lord Jehovah to these bones: Lo, I am bringing into you a spirit, and ye have lived,

⁵Nõnda ütleb Issand Jumal nendele luudele: Vaata, ma toon teie sisse vaimu ja te saate elavaks.

⁶and I have given on you sinews, and cause flesh to come up upon you, and covered you over with skin, and given in you a spirit, and ye have lived, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.`

⁶Ja ma panen teie külge kõõlused, kasvatan teie peale liha, katan teid nahaga ja annan teie sisse vaimu, ja te saate elavaks. Ja te saate tunda, et mina olen Issand.'

⁷And I have prophesied as I have been commanded, and there is a noise, as I am prophesying, and lo, a rushing, and draw near do the bones, bone unto its bone.

⁷Ja ma kuulutasin prohvetlikult, nagu mind kästi. Ja kui ma kuulutasin, siis kostis hääl, ja vaata, midagi krabises. Luud lähenesid üksteisele, iga luu oma luule.

⁸And I beheld, and lo, on them [are] sinews, and flesh hath come up, and cover them doth skin over above — and spirit there is none in them.

⁸Ja ma vaatasin, ja ennäe, neile tulid kõõlused ja kasvas liha, ja nahk kattis neid pealtpoolt; aga vaimu nende sees ei olnud.

⁹And He saith unto me: `Prophesy unto the Spirit, prophesy, son of man, and thou hast said unto the Spirit: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: From the four winds come in, O Spirit, and breathe on these slain, and they do live.`

⁹Siis ta ütles mulle: 'Kuuluta vaimule, kuuluta, inimesepoeg, ja ütle vaimule: Nõnda ütleb Issand Jumal: Vaim, tule nelja tuule poolt ja puhu neisse tapetuisse, et nad saaksid elavaks!'

¹⁰And I have prophesied as He commanded me, and the Spirit cometh into them, and they live, and stand on their feet — a very very great force.

¹⁰Ja ma kuulutasin, nagu ta mind käskis; ja neisse tuli vaim ja nad said elavaks ning tõusid jalgadele - päratu suur vägi.

¹¹And He saith unto me, `Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; lo, they are saying: Dried up have our bones, And perished hath our hope, We have been cut off by ourselves.

¹¹Ja ta ütles mulle: 'Inimesepoeg, need luud on kogu Iisraeli sugu. Vaata, nad ütlevad: Meie luud on kuivanud, meie lootus on kadunud, me oleme nagu ära lõigatud.

¹²Therefore, prophesy, and thou hast said unto them, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am opening your graves, And have brought you up out of your graves, O My people, And brought you in unto the land of Israel.

¹²Seepärast kuuluta prohvetlikult ja ütle neile: Nõnda ütleb Issand Jumal: Vaata, ma avan teie hauad ja toon teid, oma rahva, teie haudadest välja ja viin teid Iisraeli maale.

¹³And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My opening your graves, And in My bringing you up out of your graves, O My people.

¹³Ja te saate tunda, et mina olen Issand, kui ma avan teie hauad ja toon teid, oma rahva, teie haudadest välja.

¹⁴And I have given My Spirit in you, and ye have lived, And I have caused you to rest on your land, And ye have known that I Jehovah, I have spoken, and I have done [it], An affirmation of Jehovah.`

¹⁴Ja ma annan teie sisse oma Vaimu, et te saaksite elavaks, ja ma asetan teid teie oma maale; ja te saate tunda, et mina, Issand, olen rääkinud ja teen seda, ütleb Issand.'

¹⁵And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,

¹⁵Ja mulle tuli Issanda sõna; ta ütles:

¹⁶`And thou, son of man, take to thee one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the sons of Israel, his companions; and take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the house of Israel, his companions,

¹⁶'Ja sina, inimesepoeg, võta enesele üks puutükk ja kirjuta selle peale: Juuda ja temaga liitunud Iisraeli lapsed. Võta siis veel üks puutükk ja kirjuta selle peale: Joosep-Efraimi puutükk, ja temaga liitunud kogu Iisraeli sugu.

¹⁷and bring them near one unto another, to thee, for one stick, and they have become one in thy hand.

¹⁷Siis liida need teineteise külge üheks puutükiks, nõnda et need su käes moodustaksid terviku.

¹⁸`And when sons of thy people speak unto thee, saying, Dost thou not declare to us what these [are] to thee?

¹⁸Kui siis su rahva lapsed sulle räägivad, küsides: 'Kas sa ei seletaks meile, mida need sul tähendavad?',

¹⁹Speak unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the stick of Joseph, that [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and have given them unto him, with the stick of Judah, and have made them become one stick, and they have been one in My hand.

¹⁹siis vasta neile: Nõnda ütleb Issand Jumal: Vaata, ma võtan Joosepi puu, mis on Efraimi käes, ja temaga liitunud suguharud ja panen need ühte Juuda puuga ning teen neist ühe puu, et neist saaks mu käes tervik.

²⁰And the sticks on which thou writest have been in thy hand before thine eyes,

²⁰Ja kui puutükid, mille peale on kirjutatud, on sinu käes nende silme ees,

²¹and speak thou unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the sons of Israel, From among the nations whither they have gone, And have gathered them from round about, And I have brought them in unto their land.

²¹siis räägi neile: Nõnda ütleb Issand Jumal: Vaata, ma võtan Iisraeli lapsed paganate seast, kuhu nad on läinud, ja kogun neid igalt poolt ning toon nad nende oma maale.

²²And I have made them become one nation in the land, on mountains of Israel, And one king is to them all for king, And they are no more as two nations, Nor are they divided any more into two kingdoms again.

²²Ja ma teen nad üheks rahvaks seal maal, Iisraeli mägedel, ja üks kuningas on neile kõigile kuningaks. Nad ei ole siis enam kaks rahvast ega jagune enam kaheks kuningriigiks.

²³Nor are they defiled any more with their idols, And with their abominations, And with any of their transgressions, And I have saved them out of all their dwellings, In which they have sinned, And I have cleansed them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I — I am to them for God.

²³Nad ei rüveta endid enam oma ebajumalatega ja jäledustega ega oma mitmesuguste üleastumistega, vaid ma päästan nad kõigist nende asupaigust, kus nad on pattu teinud, ja puhastan nad. Ja nad on mulle rahvaks ja mina olen neile Jumalaks.

²⁴And My servant David [is] king over them, And one shepherd have they all, And in My judgments they go, And My statutes they keep, and have done them.

²⁴Ja mu sulane Taavet on neile kuningaks ja neil kõigil on üksainus karjane; nad käivad minu seaduste järgi ja peavad mu määrusi ning täidavad neid.

²⁵And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son`s sons — unto the age, And David My servant [is] their prince — to the age.

²⁵Ja nad elavad maal, mille ma andsin oma sulasele Jaakobile, kus teie vanemad on elanud; nad elavad seal igavesti, nemad ja nende lapsed ja nende laste lapsed, ja Taavet, mu sulane, on igavesti neile vürstiks.

²⁶And I have made to them a covenant of peace, A covenant age-during it is with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst — to the age.

²⁶Ja ma teen nendega rahulepingu, mis jääb igaveseks lepinguks nendega, ja ma paigutan neid ning teen nad arvukaks ja ma panen oma pühamu igavesti nende keskele.

²⁷And My tabernacle hath been over them, And I have been to them for God, And they have been to Me for a people.

²⁷Ja minu eluase on nende juures: mina olen neile Jumalaks ja nemad on mulle rahvaks.

²⁸And known have the nations that I Jehovah am sanctifying Israel, In My sanctuary being in their midst — to the age!`

²⁸Ja paganad peavad tundma, et mina olen Issand, kes pühitseb Iisraeli, kui mu pühamu on igavesti nende keskel.'
