Yehezkiel 37: 21- 28

37:21Dan kamu harus mengatakannya kepada mereka: Demikianlah firman Tuhan Allah: Melihat, I will take up the sons of Israel, from the midst of the nations to which they have gone, and I will gather them together on every side, and I will lead them onto their own soil.
37:22And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel, and one king will be ruler over all. And they will no longer be two nations, nor will they be divided any more into two kingdoms.
37:23And they will no longer be defiled by their idols, and by their abominations, and by all their iniquities. And I will save them, out of all the settlements in which they have sinned, and I will cleanse them. Dan mereka akan menjadi bangsaku, dan aku akan menjadi Tuhan mereka.
37:24And my servant David shall be the king over them, and they shall have one shepherd. They shall walk in my judgments, and they shall keep my commandments, and they shall do them.
37:25And they shall live upon the land that I gave to my servant Jacob, in which your fathers lived. And they shall live upon it, they and their sons, and the sons of their sons, even for all time. And David, pelayanku, shall be their leader, in perpetuity.
37:26And I will strike a covenant of peace with them. This will be an everlasting covenant for them. And I will establish them, and multiply them. And I will set my sanctuary in their midst, unceasingly.
37:27And my tabernacle shall be among them. Dan aku akan menjadi Tuhan mereka, dan mereka akan menjadi bangsaku.
37:28And the Gentiles shall know that I am the Lord, the Sanctifier of Israel, when my sanctuary will be in their midst, forever.”

Yohanes 11: 45- 56

11:45Karena itu, many of the Jews, who had come to Mary and Martha, and who had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him.
11:46But certain ones among them went to the Pharisees and told them the things that Jesus had done.
11:47Dan sebagainya, the high priests and the Pharisees gathered a council, and they were saying: “What can we do? For this man accomplishes many signs.
11:48If we leave him alone, in this way all will believe in him. And then the Romans will come and take away our place and our nation.”
11:49Then one of them, named Caiaphas, since he was the high priest that year, berkata kepada mereka: “You do not understand anything.
11:50Nor do you realize that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the entire nation should not perish.”
11:51Yet he did not say this from himself, but since he was the high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation.
11:52And not only for the nation, but in order to gather together as one the children of God who have been dispersed.
11:53Karena itu, from that day, they planned to put him to death.
11:54Dan sebagainya, Jesus no longer walked in public with the Jews. But he went into a region near the desert, to a city which is called Ephraim. And he lodged there with his disciples.
11:55Now the Passover of the Jews was near. And many from the countryside ascended to Jerusalem before the Passover, so that they might sanctify themselves.
11:56Karena itu, they were seeking Jesus. And they conferred with one another, while standing in the temple: “What do you think? Will he come to the feast day?”
