¹³And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I haue opened your graues, O my people, and brought you vp out of your graues,

¹⁴And shall put my spirit in you, and yee shall liue, and I shall place you in your owne land: then shall ye know that I the LORD haue spoken it, and perfourmed it, saith the LORD.
