Ezekiel:38
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the word of the Lord came to me ,
saying :
*
Son of man ,
set thy face against Gog ,
the land of Magog ,
the chief prince of Mosoch and Thubal :
and prophesy of him ,
*
And say to him :
Thus saith the Lord God :
Behold ,
I come against thee ,
O Gog ,
the chief prince of Mosoch and Thubal .
*
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 .
*
The Persians ,
Ethiopians ,
and Libyans with them ,
all with shields and helmets .
*
Gomer ,
and all his bands ,
the house of Thogorma ,
the northern parts and all his strength ,
and many peoples with thee .
*
Prepare and make thyself ready ,
and all thy multitude that is assembled about thee ,
and be thou commander over them .
*
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
*
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 .
*
Thus saith the Lord God :
In that day projects shall enter into thy heart ,
and thou shalt conceive a mischievous design .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 ?
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
