12Therefore prophesy, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.
13You shall know that I am Yahweh, when I have opened your graves, and caused you to come up out of your graves, my people.
14I will put my Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land: and you shall know that I, Yahweh, have spoken it and performed it, says Yahweh.
16You, son of man, take one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:
17and join them for you one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.
18When the children of your people shall speak to you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these?
