1The hand of Yahweh was on me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of Yahweh, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.
2He caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, behold, they were very dry.
3He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? I answered, Lord Yahweh, you know.
4Again he said to me, Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, you dry bones, hear the word of Yahweh.
5Thus says the Lord Yahweh to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.
6I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.
7So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and, behold, an earthquake; and the bones came together, bone to its bone.
