81AfterH4480 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 2gatheredH6908 from manyH7227 3nationsH5971 to the 4mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478 whichH834 had beenH1961 a continualH8548 placeH2723 ofH2723 ruinsH2723; but 5its people were broughtH3318 outH3318 from the 6nationsH5971, and they are 7livingH3427 securelyH983, allH3605 of them. 9And you will goH5927 upH5927, you will comeH935 8like a stormH7724; you will be like a 9cloudH6051 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 10thoughtsH1697 will comeH5927 into your mindH3824 and you will 11deviseH2803 an evilH7451 planH4284, 11and you will sayH559, ‘I will goH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 the landH776 of 1213unwalledH6519 villagesH6519. I will goH5927 against those who are 14atH8252 restH8252, who liveH3427 securelyH983, allH3605 of them livingH3427 withoutH369 wallsH2346 and havingH369 noH369 barsH1280 or gatesH1817, 12to 15captureH7997 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 16centerH2872 of the worldH776.’ 1317ShebaH7614 and 18DedanH1719 and the merchantsH5503 of 19TarshishH8659 with allH3605 its 20villagesH3724 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 21spoilsH7998?’”’

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 22livingH3427 securelyH983, will you not knowH3045 it?
