Ezekiel 38:3-9

3and say, ‘Thus says the Lord 1God, “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, 2prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal. 4I will turn you about and put hooks into your jaws, and I will 3bring you out, and all your army, 4horses and horsemen, all of them 5splendidly attired, a great company with buckler and shield, all of them wielding swords; 56Persia, 78Ethiopia and 9Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet; 610Gomer with all its troops; 11Beth-togarmah from the remote parts of the north with all its troops--many peoples with you.

7“12Be prepared, and prepare yourself, you and all your companies that are assembled about you, and be a guard for them. 813After many days you will be summoned; in the latter years you will come into the land that is restored from the sword, whose inhabitants have been 14gathered from many 15nations to the 16mountains of Israel which had been a continual waste; but 17its people were brought out from the 18nations, and they are 19living securely, all of them. 9You will go up, you will come 20like a storm; you will be like a 21cloud covering the land, you and all your troops, and many peoples with you.”
