Context of Ezekiel 36:30
28Then you will live in the land that I gave your ancestors. You will be my people, and I will be your God. 29I will rescue you from all your uncleanness. I will make the grain grow so that you will never again have famines. I will make fruit grow on the trees and crops grow in the fields so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famines. 31Then you will remember your evil ways and the bad things that you did, and you will hate yourselves for all these wicked and disgusting things. 32I want you to know that I’m not doing this for your sake, declares the Almighty Lord. Be ashamed and disgraced because of your ways, people of Israel.
