Ezekiel 37:16-19

16“And you, son of man, take for yourself 1one stick and write on it, ‘For 2Judah and for the sons of Israel, his companions’; then take another stick and write on it, ‘For 3Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and all the house of Israel, his companions.’

17Then 4join them for yourself one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.

18When the sons of your people speak to you saying, ‘Will you not declare to us 5what you mean by these?’

19say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel, his companions; and I will put them with it, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they will be one in My hand.”’
