Ezekiel 38:1-9

1Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 2“Son of man, set your face toward 1Gog of the land of 2Magog, the 3chief prince of 4Meshech and 5Tubal, and prophesy against him, 3and say, ‘This is what the Lord 6God says: “Behold, I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. 4So I will turn you around and put hooks into your jaws, and I will 7bring you out, and all your army, 8horses and horsemen, all of them magnificently dressed, a great contingent with shield and 9buckler, all of them wielding swords; 510Persia, 1112Cush, and 13Put with them, all of them with buckler and helmet; 614Gomer with all its troops; 15Beth-togarmah from the remote parts of the north with all its troops--many peoples with you.

7“16Be ready, and be prepared, you and all your contingents that are assembled around you, and be a guard for them. 817After 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 18gathered from many 19nations to the 20mountains of Israel which had been a continual place of ruins; but 21its people were brought out from the 22nations, and they are 23living securely, all of them. 9And you will go up, you will come 24like a storm; you will be like a 25cloud covering the land, you and all your troops, and many peoples with you.”
