1Now the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 2“SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 your faceH6440 towardH413 1GogH1463 of the landH776 of 2MagogH4031, the 3chiefH7218 princeH5387 of 4MeshechH4902 and 5TubalH8422, and prophesyH5012 againstH5921 him, 3and sayH559, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 6GodH3068 saysH559: “BeholdH2009, I am againstH413 you, GogH1463, chiefH7218 princeH5387 of MeshechH4902 and TubalH8422. 4So I will turnH7725 you aroundH7725 and putH5414 hooksH2397 into your jawsH3895, and I will 7bringH3318 you outH3318, and allH3605 your armyH2428, 8horsesH5483 and horsemenH6571, allH3605 of them magnificentlyH4358 dressedH3847, a greatH7227 contingentH6951 with shieldH6793 and 9bucklerH4043, allH3605 of them wieldingH8610 swordsH2719; 510PersiaH6539, 1112CushH3568, and 13PutH6316 with them, allH3605 of them with bucklerH4043 and helmetH3553; 614GomerH1586 with allH3605 its troopsH102; 15Beth-togarmahH1004H8425 from the remoteH3411 partsH3411 of the northH6828 with allH3605 its troopsH102--manyH7227 peoplesH5971 with you.

7“16BeH3559 readyH3559, and beH3559 preparedH3559, you and allH3605 your contingentsH6951 that are assembledH6950 aroundH5921 you, and be a guardH4929 for them. 817AfterH4480 manyH7227 daysH3117 you will be summonedH6485; in the latterH319 yearsH8141 you will comeH935 into the landH776 that is restoredH7725 from the swordH2719, whose inhabitants have been 18gatheredH6908 from manyH7227 19nationsH5971 to the 20mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478 whichH834 had beenH1961 a continualH8548 placeH2723 ofH2723 ruinsH2723; but 21its people were broughtH3318 outH3318 from the 22nationsH5971, and they are 23livingH3427 securelyH983, allH3605 of them. 9And you will goH5927 upH5927, you will comeH935 24like a stormH7724; you will be like a 25cloudH6051 coveringH3680 the landH776, you and allH3605 your troopsH102, and manyH7227 peoplesH5971 with you.”

10‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “It will comeH1961 aboutH1961 on that dayH3117, that 26thoughtsH1697 will comeH5927 into your mindH3824 and you will 27deviseH2803 an evilH7451 planH4284, 11and you will sayH559, ‘I will goH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 the landH776 of 2829unwalledH6519 villagesH6519. I will goH5927 against those who are 30atH8252 restH8252, who liveH3427 securelyH983, allH3605 of them livingH3427 withoutH369 wallsH2346 and havingH369 noH369 barsH1280 or gatesH1817, 12to 31captureH7997 spoilsH7998 and to seizeH962 plunderH957, to turnH7725 your handH3027 againstH5921 the ruinsH2723 that are now inhabitedH3427, and againstH413 the peopleH5971 who are gatheredH622 from the nationsH1471, who have acquiredH6213 livestockH4735 and goodsH7075, who liveH3427 at the 32centerH2872 of the worldH776.’ 1333ShebaH7614 and 34DedanH1719 and the merchantsH5503 of 35TarshishH8659 with allH3605 its 36villagesH3724 will sayH559 to you, ‘Have you comeH935 to captureH7997 spoilsH7998? Have you assembledH6950 your contingentH6951 to seizeH962 plunderH957, to carryH5375 away silverH3701 and goldH2091, to takeH3947 away livestockH4735 and goodsH7075, to captureH7997 greatH1419 37spoilsH7998?’”’

14“ThereforeH3651 prophesyH5012, sonH1121 of manH120, and sayH559 to GogH1463, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “On that dayH3117 when My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 are 38livingH3427 securelyH983, will you not knowH3045 it? 1539You will comeH935 from your placeH4725 out of the remoteH3411 partsH3411 of the northH6828, you and manyH7227 peoplesH5971 with you, allH3605 of them ridingH7392 horsesH5483, a largeH1419 assemblyH6951 and a mightyH7227 armyH2428; 16and you will comeH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 like a cloudH6051 to coverH3680 the landH776. It shall comeH1961 aboutH1961 in the lastH319 daysH3117 that I will bringH935 you againstH5921 My landH776, soH4616 thatH4616 the nationsH1471 may 40knowH3045 Me when I 41showH6942 Myself holyH6942 through you before their eyesH5869, GogH1463.”

17‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “Are you the oneH1931 of whomH834 I spokeH1696 in formerH6931 daysH3117 throughH3027 My servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030 of IsraelH3478, who 42prophesiedH5012 in thoseH1992 daysH3117 for many yearsH8141 that I would bringH935 you againstH5921 them? 18It will comeH1961 aboutH1961 on that dayH3117, whenH3117 GogH1463 comesH935 againstH5921 the landH127 of IsraelH3478,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, “that My furyH2534 will mountH5927 upH5927 in My 43angerH639. 19In My 44zealH7068 and in My blazingH784 wrathH5678 I declareH1696 that on that dayH3117 there will certainlyH518H3808 be a greatH1419 4546earthquakeH7494 in the landH127 of IsraelH3478. 2047The fishH1709 of the seaH3220, the birdsH5775 of the skyH8064, the animalsH2421 of the fieldH7704, allH3605 the crawlingH7431 thingsH7431 that crawlH7430 on the earthH127, and allH3605 mankindH120 whoH834 are on the faceH6440 of the earthH127 will shakeH7493 at My presenceH6440; and the 48mountainsH2022 will be thrownH2040 downH2040, the steepH4095 pathwaysH4095 will 49collapseH5307, and everyH3605 wallH2346 will fallH5307 to the groundH776. 21And I will callH7121 for a 50swordH2719 againstH5921 51him on allH3605 My mountainsH2022,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. “52EveryH376 man’sH376 swordH2719 will be against his brotherH251. 22With plagueH1698 and with bloodH1818 I will enterH8199 intoH8199 53judgmentH8199 with him; and I will rainH4305 on him and on his troopsH102, and on the manyH7227 peoplesH5971 whoH834 are with him, 54a torrentialH7857 rainH1653, 55hailstonesH417H68, fireH784, and brimstoneH1614. 23So I will proveH1431 Myself greatH1431, showH6942 Myself holyH6942, and 56makeH3045 Myself knownH3045 in the sightH5869 of manyH7227 nationsH1471; and they will knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068.”’
