chapter 38
1
And
the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of
Magog, the chief prince of Mosoch and Thubal: and prophesy of him,
3 And say to him: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I
come against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Mosoch and Thubal.
4 And I will turn thee about, and I will put a bit in
thy jaws: and I will bring thee forth, and ail thy army, horses and horsemen
all clothed with coats of mail, a great multitude, armed with spears and
shields and swords.
5 The Persians, Ethiopians, and Libyans with them, all
with shields and helmets.
6 Gomer, and all his bands, the house of Thogorma, the
northern parts and all his strength, and many peoples with thee.
7 Prepare and make thyself ready, and all thy multitude
that is assembled about thee, and be thou commander over them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: at the end of
years thou shalt come to the land that is returned from the sword, and is
gathered out of many nations, to the mountains of Israel which have been
continually waste: but it hath been brought forth out of the nations, and they
shall all of them dwell securely in
9 And thou shalt go up and come like a storm, and like
a cloud to cover the land, thou and all thy bands and many people with thee.
10 Thus saith the Lord God: In that day projects shall
enter into thy heart, and thou shalt conceive a mischievous design.
11 And thou shalt say: I will go up to the land which
is without a wall, I will come to them that are at rest, and dwell securely:
all these dwell without a wall, they have no bars nor gates :
12 To take spoils, and lay hold on the prey, to lay thy
hand upon them that had been wasted, and afterwards restored, and upon the
people that is gathered together out of the nations, which hath begun to
possess and to dwell in the midst of the earth.
13 Saba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tharsis, and
all the lions thereof shall say to thee: Art thou come to take spoils? behold,
thou hast gathered thy multitude to take a prey, to take silver, and gold, and
to carry away goods and substance, and to take rich spoils.
14 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy and say to Cog:
Thus saith the Lord God: Shalt thou not know, in that day, when my people of
Israel shall dwell securely?
15 And then shalt come out of thy place from the
northern parts, thou and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses,
a great company and a mighty army.
16 And thou shalt come upon my people of Israel like a
cloud, to cover the earth. Thou shalt be in the latter days, and I will bring
thee upon my land: that the nations may know me, when I shall be sanctified in
thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
17 Thus saith the Lord God: Thou then art he, of whom I
have spoken in the days of old, by my servants the prophets of Israel, who
prophesied in the days of those times that I would bring thee upon them.
18 And it shall come to pass in that day, in the day of
the coming of Gog upon the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that my
indignation shall come up in my wrath.
19 And I have spoken in my zeal, and in the fire of my
anger, that in that day there shall be a great commotion upon the land of
Israel:
20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the birds of the
air, and the beasts of the field, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon
the ground, and all men that are upon the face of the earth, shall be moved at
my presence: and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the hedges shall fall,
and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 And I will call in the sword against him in all my
mountains, saith the Lord God: every man's sword shall be pointed against his
brother.
22 And I will judge him with pestilence, and with
blood, and with violent rain, and vast hailstones: I will rain fire and
brimstone upon him, and upon his army, and upon the many nations that are with
him.
23 And I will be magnified, and I will be sanctified:
and I will be known in the eyes of many nations: and they shall know that I am
the Lord.
