* And the word of the Lord came unto me , saying , * Son of man , direct thy face against Gog of the land of Magog , the prince of Rosh , Meshech and Thubal , and prophesy against him , * And say , Thus hath said the Lord Eternal , Behold , I will be against thee , O Gog , the prince of Rosh , Meshech and Thubal ; * And I will derange thee , and put hooks into thy jaws , and I will bring thee forth , and all thy army , horses and horsemen , all of them clothed in elegant attire , a great assemblage with bucklers and shields , all of them grasping swords . * Persia , Cush , and Put with them ; all of them with shield and helmet ; * Gomer and all of its armies ; the house of Thogarmah out of the farthest north , and all its armies ; many people shall be with thee . * Be thou ready , and prepare thyself , thou , and all thy assemblages that are assembled about thee , and be thou a guard unto them . * After many days shalt thou be ordered forward ; in the end of years shalt thou come into the land that is recovering from the sword , and is gathered together out of many people , against the mountains of Israel , which have been ruined for a very long time : that are brought forth out of the nations , and that now dwell in safety , all of them . * Thou wilt ascend and come like a tempest , like a cloud to cover the earth wilt thou be , thou , and all thy armies , and the many people with thee . * Thus hath said the Lord Eternal , It will also come to pass , at the same time , that things will come into thy mind , and thou wilt entertain an evil device ; * And thou wilt say , I will go up over the land of open towns ; I will come against those that are careless , that dwell in safety , all of whom dwell without walls , and have neither bars nor gates , * To snatch up the spoil , and to take away the prey ; to turn thy hand against the ruined places now inhabited , and against the people that are gathered out of the nations , that have gotten cattle and goods , that dwell in the highest part of the land . * Sheba , and Dedan , and the traders of Tharshish , with all her young lions , will say unto thee , Art thou come to plunder the spoil ? hast thou gathered thy company to carry off the prey ? to bear away silver and gold , to take away cattle and goods , to plunder a great spoil ? * Therefore , prophesy , son of man , and say unto Gog , Thus hath said the Lord Eternal , Behold , on the day when my people of Israel dwelleth in safety , shalt thou know . * And thou wilt come from thy place out of the farthest ends of the north , thou , and many people with thee , all of them riding upon horses , a great assemblage , and a mighty army ; * And thou wilt come up against my people of Israel , like a cloud to cover the land ; in the latter days will this be , and I will bring thee over my land , in order that the nations may know me , when I am sanctified on thee , before their eyes , O Gog . * Thus hath said the Lord Eternal , Art thou he of whom I have spoken in ancient days through means of my servants the prophets of Israel , who prophesied in those days years , that I would bring thee against them ? * And it shall come to pass at the same time , on the day of Gog ’s coming over the land of Israel , saith the Lord Eternal , that my fury shall be kindled in my nose . * And in my zealousness , in the fire of my wrath , have I spoken , Surely on that day there shall be a great earthquake in the country of Israel ; * And there shall quake at my presence the fishes of the sea , and the fowls of the heaven , and the beasts of the field , and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth , and all the men that are upon the face of the earth , and the mountains shall be thrown down , and the cliffs shall fall , and every wall shall fall to the ground . * And I will call against him throughout all my mountains for the sword , saith the Lord Eternal : every man ’s sword shall be against his brother . * And I will hold judgment over him with pestilence and with blood ; and an overflowing rain , and great hailstones , fire , and sulfur will I let rain over him and his armies , and over the many people that are with him . * Thus will I magnify myself , and sanctify myself , and make myself known before the eyes of many nations : and they shall know that I am the Lord .
