I Will Put My Spirit Within You

22 “Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord God: ^zIt is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act, but ^afor the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations to which you came. 23 And I will ^bvindicate the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, and which you have profaned among them. And the nations will know that I am the Lord, declares the Lord God, when through you I vindicate my holiness ^cbefore their eyes. 24 I will take you from the nations and ^dgather you from all the countries and bring you into your own land. 25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your ^euncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. 26 ^fAnd I will ^ggive you a new heart, and a ^hnew spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And ⁱI will put my Spirit ^jwithin you, and cause you to ^kwalk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.¹ 28 You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers, and you shall be my people, and I will be your God. 29 And I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. And I will summon the grain and make it abundant and lay ^lno famine upon you. 30 I will make the ^mfruit of the tree and the increase of the field abundant, that you may never again suffer the disgrace of famine among the nations. 31 Then you will remember your evil ways, and your deeds that were not good, and you will ⁿloathe yourselves for your iniquities and your abominations. 32 It is not for your sake that I will act, declares the Lord God; let that be known to you. ^oBe ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel.

Him Whom They Have Pierced

10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and ^qpleas for mercy, so that, when ^rthey look on me, on him whom they have pierced, ^sthey shall mourn for him, as one mourns ^tfor an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn. 11 On that day the mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning for Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo. 12 The land shall mourn, each family¹ by itself: the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves; 13 the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the Shimeites by itself, and their wives by themselves; 14 and all the families that are left, each by itself, and their wives by themselves.

1 “On that day there shall be a fountain opened for the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to ^ucleanse them from sin and uncleanness.
