1 Facta est super me manus Domini, et eduxit me in spiritu Domini, et dimisit me in medio campi qui erat plenus ossibus. 2 Et circumduxit me per ea in gyro: erant autem multa valde super faciem campi, siccaque vehementer. 3 Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, putasne vivent ossa ista? Et dixi: Domine Deus, tu nosti. 4 Et dixit ad me: Vaticinare de ossibus istis, et dices eis: Ossa arida, audite verbum Domini. 5 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus ossibus his: Ecce ego intromittam in vos spiritum, et vivetis. 6 Et dabo super vos nervos, et succrescere faciam super vos carnes, et superextendam in vobis cutem, et dabo vobis spiritum, et vivetis: et scietis quia ego Dominus. 7 Et prophetavi sicut præceperat mihi: factus est autem sonitus, prophetante me, et ecce commotio: et accesserunt ossa ad ossa, unumquodque ad juncturam suam. 8 Et vidi, et ecce super ea nervi et carnes ascenderunt, et extenta est in eis cutis desuper: et spiritum non habebant. 9 Et dixit ad me: Vaticinare ad spiritum: vaticinare, fili hominis, et dices ad spiritum: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: A quatuor ventis veni, spiritus, et insuffla super interfectos istos, et reviviscant. 10 Et prophetavi sicut præceperat mihi: et ingressus est in ea spiritus, et vixerunt: steteruntque super pedes suos, exercitus grandis nimis valde. 11 Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, ossa hæc universa, domus Israël est. Ipsi dicunt: Aruerunt ossa nostra, et periit spes nostra, et abscissi sumus. 12 Propterea vaticinare, et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego aperiam tumulos vestros, et educam vos de sepulchris vestris, populus meus, et inducam vos in terram Israël. 13 Et scietis quia ego Dominus, cum aperuero sepulchra vestra, et eduxero vos de tumulis vestris, popule meus, 14 et dedero spiritum meum in vobis, et vixeritis: et requiescere vos faciam super humum vestram, et scietis quia ego Dominus locutus sum, et feci, ait Dominus Deus. 15 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens: 16 Et tu, fili hominis, sume tibi lignum unum, et scribe super illud: Judæ, et filiorum Israël sociorum ejus: et tolle lignum alterum, et scribe super illud: Joseph, ligno Ephraim, et cunctæ domui Israël sociorumque ejus. 17 Et adjunge illa unum ad alterum tibi in lignum unum: et erunt in unionem in manu tua. 18 Cum autem dixerint ad te filii populi tui, loquentes: Nonne indicas nobis quid in his tibi velis? 19 loqueris ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego assumam lignum Joseph, quod est in manu Ephraim, et tribus Israël, quæ sunt ei adjunctæ, et dabo eas pariter cum ligno Juda, et faciam eas in lignum unum: et erunt unum in manu ejus. 20 Erunt autem ligna super quæ scripseris in manu tua in oculis eorum. 21 Et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego assumam filios Israël de medio nationum ad quas abierunt: et congregabo eos undique, et adducam eos ad humum suam. 22 Et faciam eos in gentem unam in terra in montibus Israël, et rex unus erit omnibus imperans: et non erunt ultra duæ gentes, nec dividentur amplius in duo regna, 23 neque polluentur ultra in idolis suis, et abominationibus suis, et cunctis iniquitatibus suis: et salvos eos faciam de universis sedibus in quibus peccaverunt, et emundabo eos: et erunt mihi populus, et ego ero eis Deus. 24 Et servus meus David rex super eos, et pastor unus erit omnium eorum. In judiciis meis ambulabunt, et mandata mea custodient, et facient ea: 25 et habitabunt super terram quam dedi servo meo Jacob, in qua habitaverunt patres vestri: et habitabunt super eam ipsi, et filii eorum, et filii filiorum eorum, usque in sempiternum: et David servus meus princeps eorum in perpetuum. 26 Et percutiam illis fœdus pacis: pactum sempiternum erit eis. Et fundabo eos, et multiplicabo, et dabo sanctificationem meam in medio eorum in perpetuum. 27 Et erit tabernaculum meum in eis: et ero eis Deus, et ipsi erunt mihi populus. 28 Et scient gentes quia ego Dominus sanctificator Israël, cum fuerit sanctificatio mea in medio eorum in perpetuum.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… bring you forth out of your graves; when I will draw my people from the sepulchres, and I will put breath in you, and ye shall live; and I will place you on your own land, and ye shall know that I am the Lord." And again the same speaks thus: "These things saith the Lord, I will gather Israel …
And my servant David shall be king over them, and there shall be one Shepherd for them all." Chapter 35 — Of the Prophecy of the Three Prophets, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi There remain three minor prophets, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi, who prophesied at the close of the captivity.
