4 He then told me to say:Dry bones, listen to what the Lord is saying to you,
5 “I, the Lord God, will put breath in you, and once again you will live.
6 I will wrap you with muscles and skin and breathe life into you. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”
7 I did what the Lord said, but before I finished speaking, I heard a rattling noise. The bones were coming together!
8 I saw muscles and skin cover the bones, but they had no life in them.
9 The Lord said:Ezekiel, now say to the wind, “The Lord God commands you to blow from every direction and to breathe life into these dead bodies, so they can live again.”
10 As soon as I said this, the wind blew among the bodies, and they came back to life! They all stood up, and there were enough to make a large army.
