Ezekiel 39:1-10

1“And 1you, son of man, prophesy against Gog and say, ‘This is what the Lord 2God says: “Behold, I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal; 2and I will turn you around, lead you on a rope, take you up from the remotest parts of the north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel. 3Then I will 3strike your bow from your left hand and make your arrows fall from your right hand. 4You will 4fall on the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops, and the peoples who are with you; I will give you as 5food to every 6kind of predatory bird and animal of the field. 5You will fall on the 7open field; for it is I who have spoken,” declares the Lord God. 6“And I will send 8fire upon Magog and those who inhabit the 9coastlands in safety; and they will know that I am the Lord.

7“And I will make My 10holy name known in the midst of My people Israel; and I will not allow My holy name to be 11profaned anymore. But the 12nations will know that I am the Lord, the 13Holy One in Israel. 8Behold, it is coming and it shall be done,” declares the Lord God. “That is the day of which I have spoken.

9“Then those who inhabit the cities of Israel will 14go out and make 15fires with the weapons and burn them, both 16bucklers and shields, bows and arrows, war clubs and spears, and for seven years they will make fires of them. 10They will not take wood from the field or gather firewood from the forests, because they will make fires with the weapons; and they will take the spoils of those who plundered them and seize the 17plunder of those who plundered them,” declares the Lord God.
