Context of Ezekiel 39:26
24I dealt with them according to their uncleanness and transgressions, and I hid my face from them. 25“So this is what the Lord God says: Now I will restore the fortunes of Jacob and have compassion on the whole house of Israel, and I will be jealous for my holy name. They will feel remorse for their disgrace and all the unfaithfulness they committed against me, when they live securely in their land with no one to frighten them. 27When I bring them back from the peoples and gather them from the countries of their enemies, I will demonstrate my holiness through them in the sight of many nations. 28They will know that I am the Lord their God when I regather them to their own land after having exiled them among the nations. I will leave none of them behind.
