Context of Ezekiel 39:24
22From that day on, the people of Israel will know that I am the Lord their God. 23Then the nations will know that the people of Israel went into captivity because they did wrong and rebelled against me. So I hid my face from them and handed them over to their enemies. They were killed in battle. I paid them back for their uncleanness and their sins, and I hid my face from them. 25“So this is what the Almighty Lord says: Now I will bring back Jacob’s captives and have compassion for the whole nation of Israel. I will stand up for my holy name. 26When they live safely in a land where no one will frighten them, they will forget their shame and all the unfaithful things they have done against me.
