“
Son of man, set your face against
Gog of the land of Magog, the chief
prince of Meshech and Tubal .
Prophesy against him
Son of man, set your face toward
Gog ,
of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh,
Meshech ,
and Tubal ,
and
prophesy against him ,
and declare
that
this
is
what
the Lord GOD
says
: Behold, I am against you, O
Gog, chief
prince of Meshech and Tubal .
and say,
Thus
says
the Lord Yahweh
: Behold, I am against you, Gog, prince of Rosh,
Meshech ,
and Tubal :
I will turn you around
, put hooks in
your jaws, and bring you out
with
all your army —your
horses
, your
horsemen in full armor, and
a great company armed
with shields
and bucklers
, all brandishing
their
swords .
and
I will turn you about
, and
put hooks into
your jaws, and I
will
bring you forth,
and
all your army, horses
and
horsemen ,
all
of
them
clothed
in full armor, a great company with buckler
and shield
, all of
them
handling
swords ;
Persia, Cush, and Put will
accompany
them, all with shields
and helmets,
Persia, Cush, and Put with
them, all of
them
with shield
and helmet;
as
well
as
Gomer with
all
its
troops
, and Beth-
togarmah from
the far
north with
all its
troops—the
many nations
with you.
Gomer, and all
his
hordes;
the
house
of
Togarmah in
the uttermost
parts
of
the
north ,
and
all his
hordes;
even
many peoples
with you.
Get
ready;
prepare yourself, you and all your company
gathered
around
you;
you will
be their
guard.
Be
prepared,
yes,
prepare yourself, you ,
and all your companies
who
are
assembled
to
you ,
and
be a
guard to
them
.
After a
long
time
you will
be summoned.
In the latter years you will
enter
a
land that has
recovered
from war
, whose
people
were
gathered from
many nations
to
the mountains of Israel, which had
long
been
desolate.
They
had
been brought out from
the nations
, and all
now
dwell securely.
After many
days
you shall
be visited:
in the latter years you shall
come
into
the
land that is
brought
back
from the
sword
, that
is
gathered out
of
many peoples,
on
the mountains of Israel, which have
been a
continual
waste;
but
it
is
brought forth
out of
the peoples
, and they
shall
dwell securely ,
all
of
them
.
You and
all
your
troops
, and
many
peoples
with
you will
go
up,
advancing
like a thunderstorm;
you will
be like a cloud covering
the land.
You shall
ascend
, you shall
come
like a storm,
you shall
be like a cloud to
cover
the land ,
you,
and
all
your
hordes,
and
many
peoples
with
you
.
This
is
what
the Lord GOD
says
: On
that day, thoughts
will
arise
in
your mind, and you will
devise an evil plan.
Thus
says
the Lord Yahweh
: It
shall
happen
in
that day, that
things
shall
come
into
your mind, and you shall
devise an evil device:
You will
say, ‘
I will go up against
a
land of unwalled villages; I will come
against
a
tranquil
people
who dwell securely, all of them living
without walls or
bars or
gates —
and
you shall
say, I will go up to
the
land of unwalled villages; I will go
to
those
who are
at
rest,
who
dwell securely, all of them dwelling
without walls ,
and
having
neither
bars nor
gates ;
in
order
to seize
the spoil and carry
off
the plunder,
to turn a
hand against the desolate
places now inhabited and against a
people gathered from
the nations, who have acquired
livestock
and
possessions
and who live
at
the center
of the land
. ’
to take
the spoil and to
take
the prey;
to turn your
hand against the waste
places that
are
[
now ]
inhabited ,
and against the
people who
are
gathered out
of
the nations, who have gotten
cattle
and goods,
who dwell
in
the middle
of the earth
.
Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all its
villages
will
ask
, ‘Have
you come to capture
the plunder
? Have you assembled your hordes
to carry away loot,
to
make
off
with
silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize
great spoil? ’
Sheba ,
and Dedan ,
and the merchants of Tarshish ,
with all the
young
lions
of
it
, shall
tell
you ,
Are
you
come to take
the spoil
? have you assembled your company
to take
the
prey?
to
carry away silver and gold, to take away
cattle and goods, to take
great spoil?
Therefore prophesy
, son of man, and tell Gog that
this
is
what
the Lord GOD
says
: On
that day when My people Israel are
dwelling
securely, will
you not take
notice
of
this
?
Therefore, son of man, prophesy,
and tell Gog ,
Thus
says
the Lord Yahweh
: In
that day when my people Israel dwells
securely, shall
you not know
it
?
And
you will
come from your place out of the far
north —
you and many peoples with you, all riding horses —a
mighty
horde
, a huge
army .
You shall
come from your place out of the uttermost
parts
of
the
north ,
you ,
and many peoples with you, all of
them
riding on
horses, a great
company
and
a
mighty
army ;
You will
advance
against My people Israel like
a cloud covering
the land .
It will
happen in the latter days, O
Gog,
that I will bring you against My land, so
that the nations may know Me when I show
Myself
holy
in you before their eyes.
and
you shall
come
up
against my people Israel ,
as
a cloud to
cover
the land :
it shall
happen in the latter days, that I will bring you against my land, that the nations may know me ,
when I shall
be
sanctified
in you ,
Gog,
before their eyes.
This
is
what
the Lord GOD
says
: Are you the
one
of whom I have
spoken
in former
days
through
My servants ,
the prophets of Israel, who in those times
prophesied
for years that I would bring you against them?
Thus
says
the Lord Yahweh
: Are you he
of whom I spoke
in old
time
by
my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied
in those days
for [many]
years that I would bring you against them?
Now
on
that day when Gog comes
against the land of Israel, declares
the Lord GOD
, My wrath will
flare
up.
It
shall
happen
in
that day ,
when Gog shall
come
against the land of Israel, says
the Lord Yahweh
, that
my wrath shall
come
up into
my
nostrils
.
In My zeal
and fiery
rage
I proclaim
that
on
that day there will
be a great earthquake
in the land of Israel .
For
in my jealousy
and in
the
fire
of
my
wrath
have
I spoken,
Surely
in
that day there shall
be a great shaking
in the land of Israel ;
The fish of the sea, the birds of the air
, the beasts
of the field, every
creature
that
crawls
upon
the ground
, and all mankind
on the face
of the earth will
tremble
at My presence .
The mountains will
be thrown down, the cliffs
will
collapse
, and every wall will
fall to the ground.
so
that
the fish of the sea, and
the birds of the sky
, and
the animals
of the field, and
all
creeping
things
who
creep
on
the earth
, and all the
men
who
are
on the surface
of the earth ,
shall
shake
at my presence ,
and
the mountains shall
be thrown down, and
the steep
places
shall
fall
, and every wall shall
fall to the ground.
And
I will summon
a sword against Gog
on
all My mountains, declares
the Lord GOD,
and
every man’s
sword will
be against his brother.
I will call
for
a sword against him
to
all my mountains, says
the Lord Yahweh:
every man's
sword shall
be against his brother.
I
will execute
judgment upon
him
with plague
and bloodshed.
I will pour
out
torrents
of
rain ,
hailstones,
fire,
and
sulfur
on him and on his troops
and on the many nations
with him.
With
pestilence
and
with
blood
will I
enter
into
judgment with him;
and I will rain on him ,
and on his hordes,
and on the many peoples
who
are
with him ,
an
overflowing
shower,
and
great
hailstones,
fire,
and
sulfur
.
I will magnify and sanctify Myself, and will reveal
Myself in the sight
of many nations .
Then
they will
know that I am the
LORD
.
I will magnify myself,
and sanctify myself, and I
will make
myself known
in the eyes
of many nations ;
and
they shall
know that I am Yahweh
.
