²¹ And while they were putting a dead man into the earth, they saw a band coming; and they put the man quickly into the place where Elisha's body was; and the dead man, on touching Elisha's bones, came to life again, and got up on his feet.

³⁵ Then he came back, and after walking once through the house and back, he went up, stretching himself out on the child seven times; and the child's eyes became open.

¹² So that bits of linen and clothing from his body were taken to people who were ill, and their diseases went away from them and the evil spirits went out.

¹⁵ And they even took into the streets people who were ill, and put them on beds, so that when Peter went by, some of them might be in his shade.

⁴⁴ And he who was dead came out, with linen bands folded tightly about his hands and feet, and a cloth about his face. Jesus said to them, Make him free and let him go.

²⁸ Do not be surprised at this: for the time is coming when his voice will come to all who are in the place of the dead,

²⁹ And they will come out; those who have done good, into the new life; and those who have done evil, to be judged.

²⁵ Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.

⁵² And the resting-places of the dead came open; and the bodies of a number of sleeping saints came to life;

⁵³ And coming out of their resting-places, after he had come again from the dead, they went into the holy town and were seen by a number of people.

¹ The hand of the Lord had been on me, and he took me out in the spirit of the Lord and put me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones;

² And he made me go past them round about: and I saw that there was a very great number of them on the face of the wide valley, and they were very dry.

³ And he said to me, Son of man, is it possible for these bones to come to life? And I made answer, and said, It is for you to say, O Lord.

⁴ And again he said to me, Be a prophet to these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, give ear to the word of the Lord.

⁵ This is what the Lord has said to these bones: See, I will make breath come into you so that you may come to life;

⁶ And I will put muscles on you and make flesh come on you, and put skin over you, and breath into you, so that you may have life; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

⁷ So I gave the word as I was ordered: and at my words there was a shaking of the earth, and the bones came together, bone to bone.

⁸ And looking I saw that there were muscles on them and flesh came up, and they were covered with skin: but there was no breath in them.

⁹ And he said to me, Be a prophet to the wind, be a prophet, son of man, and say to the wind, The Lord has said: Come from the four winds, O wind, breathing on these dead so that they may come to life.

¹⁰ And I gave the word at his orders, and breath came into them, and they came to life and got up on their feet, a very great army.

¹⁹ Your dead will come back; their dead bodies will come to life again. Those in the dust, awaking from their sleep, will send out a song; for your dew is a dew of light, and the earth will give birth to the shades.

¹¹ And after three days and a half the breath of life from God went into them, and they got up on their feet; and great fear came on those who saw them.
