2 He made me walk all around among them. I realized there were a great many bones in the valley and they were very dry.
3 He said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I said to him, “Sovereign Lord, you know.”
4 Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and tell them: ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
5 This is what the sovereign Lord says to these bones: Look, I am about to infuse breath into you and you will live.
6 I will put tendons on you and muscles over you and will cover you with skin; I will put breath in you and you will live. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. There was a sound when I prophesied – I heard a rattling, and the bones came together, bone to bone.
8 As I watched, I saw tendons on them, then muscles appeared, and skin covered over them from above, but there was no breath in them.
