Ezekiel 36:21-23

Living Bible

²¹ I am concerned about my reputation that was ruined by my people throughout the world.

²² “Therefore say to the people of Israel, ‘The Lord God says: I am bringing you back again, but not because you deserve it; I am doing it to protect my holy name, which you tarnished among the nations. ²³ I will honor my great name, that you defiled, and the people of the world shall know I am the Lord. I will be honored before their eyes by delivering you from exile among them.^[a]
