"And say to them, 'This is what the Lord GOD says: "Behold, I am going to ^(C1)take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;

and I will make them ^(C1)one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and ^(C2)one king will be king for all of them; and they will no longer be two nations, and no longer be divided into two kingdoms.

"They will ^(C1)no longer defile themselves with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their offenses; but ^(C2)I will rescue them from all their ^(F1)dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their God.

"And My servant ^(C1)David will be king over them, and they will all have ^(C2)one shepherd; and they will walk in My ordinances, and keep My statutes and ^(F1)follow them.

"And they will live on the land that I gave to My servant Jacob, in which your fathers lived; and they will live on it, they, and their sons and their sons' sons, forever; and My servant ^(C1)David will be their leader forever.
