Ezekiel 11:14-16

New Catholic Bible

¹⁴ Restoration of the People in Exile. Then the word of the Lord was addressed to me: ¹⁵ Son of man, it is about your brothers and your kinsmen and the entire house of Israel that the inhabitants of Israel have said, “They have strayed far from the Lord. This land has been given to us as our possession.”

¹⁶ Therefore say: Thus says the Lord God: Although I removed them far away among the nations and scattered them over the earth, I have nevertheless been a sanctuary to them for a time in the countries where they settled.
