Neither will I cause men to hear in thee the shame of the heathen any more, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the people any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nations to fall any more, saith the LordGOD.
16
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
r{mael y;lea h'wh.y -r;b.d yih.y;w
17
Son of man, when the house of Israeldwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was before me as the uncleanness of a removed woman.
19
And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.
20
And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holyname, when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
22
Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the LordGOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holyname's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
23
And I will sanctify my greatname, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD,saith the LordGOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
26
A newheart also will I give you, and a newspirit will I putwithin you: and I will take away the stonyheart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
