* Therefore , thou son of man , prophesy against Gog , and say , Thus saith the Lord GOD ; Behold , I am against thee , O Gog , the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal : * And I will turn thee back , and leave but the sixth part of thee , and will cause thee to come up from the north parts , and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel : * And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand , and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand . * Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel , thou , and all thy bands , and the people that is with thee : I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort , and to the beasts of the field to be devoured . * Thou shalt fall upon the open field : for I have spoken it , saith the Lord GOD . * And I will send a fire on Magog , and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles : and they shall know that I am the LORD . * So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel ; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more : and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD , the Holy One in Israel . * Behold , it is come , and it is done , saith the Lord GOD ; this is the day whereof I have spoken . * And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth , and shall set on fire and burn the weapons , both the shields and the bucklers , the bows and the arrows , and the handstaves , and the spears , and they shall burn them with fire seven years : * So that they shall take no wood out of the field , neither cut down any out of the forests ; for they shall burn the weapons with fire : and they shall spoil those that spoiled them , and rob those that robbed them , saith the Lord GOD . * And it shall come to pass in that day , that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel , the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea : and it shall stop the noses of the passengers : and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude : and they shall call it The valley of Hamongog . * And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them , that they may cleanse the land . * Yea , all the people of the land shall bury them ; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified , saith the Lord GOD . * And they shall sever out men of continual employment , passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth , to cleanse it : after the end of seven months shall they search . * And the passengers that pass through the land , when any seeth a man 's bone , then shall he set up a sign by it , till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamongog . * And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah . Thus shall they cleanse the land . * And , thou son of man , thus saith the Lord GOD ; Speak unto every feathered fowl , and to every beast of the field , Assemble yourselves , and come ; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you , even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel , that ye may eat flesh , and drink blood . * Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty , and drink the blood of the princes of the earth , of rams , of lambs , and of goats , of bullocks , all of them fatlings of Bashan . * And ye shall eat fat till ye be full , and drink blood till ye be drunken , of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you . * Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots , with mighty men , and with all men of war , saith the Lord GOD . * And I will set my glory among the heathen , and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed , and my hand that I have laid upon them . * So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward . * And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity : because they trespassed against me , therefore hid I my face from them , and gave them into the hand of their enemies : so fell they all by the sword . * According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them , and hid my face from them . * Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD ; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob , and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel , and will be jealous for my holy name ; * After that they have borne their shame , and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me , when they dwelt safely in their land , and none made them afraid . * When I have brought them again from the people , and gathered them out of their enemies ' lands , and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations ; * Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God , which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen : but I have gathered them unto their own land , and have left none of them any more there . * Neither will I hide my face any more from them : for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel , saith the Lord GOD . * In the five and twentieth year of our captivity , in the beginning of the year , in the tenth day of the month , in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten , in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me , and brought me thither . * In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel , and set me upon a very high mountain , by which was as the frame of a city on the south . * And he brought me thither , and , behold , there was a man , whose appearance was like the appearance of brass , with a line of flax in his hand , and a measuring reed ; and he stood in the gate . * And the man said unto me , Son of man , behold with thine eyes , and hear with thine ears , and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee ; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought hither : declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel . * And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about , and in the man 's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long by the cubit and an hand breadth : so he measured the breadth of the building , one reed ; and the height , one reed . * Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east , and went up the stairs thereof , and measured the threshold of the gate , which was one reed broad ; and the other threshold of the gate , which was one reed broad . * And every little chamber was one reed long , and one reed broad ; and between the little chambers were five cubits ; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed . * He measured also the porch of the gate within , one reed . * Then measured he the porch of the gate , eight cubits ; and the posts thereof , two cubits ; and the porch of the gate was inward . * And the little chambers of the gate eastward were three on this side , and three on that side ; they three were of one measure : and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side . * And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate , ten cubits ; and the length of the gate , thirteen cubits . * The space also before the little chambers was one cubit on this side , and the space was one cubit on that side : and the little chambers were six cubits on this side , and six cubits on that side . * He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber to the roof of another : the breadth was five and twenty cubits , door against door . * He made also posts of threescore cubits , even unto the post of the court round about the gate . * And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto the face of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits . * And there were narrow windows to the little chambers , and to their posts within the gate round about , and likewise to the arches : and windows were round about inward : and upon each post were palm trees . * Then brought he me into the outward court , and , lo , there were chambers , and a pavement made for the court round about : thirty chambers were upon the pavement . * And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates was the lower pavement . * Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without , an hundred cubits eastward and northward . * And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the north , he measured the length thereof , and the breadth thereof . * And the little chambers thereof were three on this side and three on that side ; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate : the length thereof was fifty cubits , and the breadth five and twenty cubits . * And their windows , and their arches , and their palm trees , were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east ; and they went up unto it by seven steps ; and the arches thereof were before them . * And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north , and toward the east ; and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits . * After that he brought me toward the south , and behold a gate toward the south : and he measured the posts thereof and the arches thereof according to these measures . * And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about , like those windows : the length was fifty cubits , and the breadth five and twenty cubits . * And there were seven steps to go up to it , and the arches thereof were before them : and it had palm trees , one on this side , and another on that side , upon the posts thereof . * And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south : and he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits . * And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate : and he measured the south gate according to these measures ; * And the little chambers thereof , and the posts thereof , and the arches thereof , according to these measures : and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about : it was fifty cubits long , and five and twenty cubits broad . * And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long , and five cubits broad . * And the arches thereof were toward the utter court ; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof : and the going up to it had eight steps . * And he brought me into the inner court toward the east : and he measured the gate according to these measures . * And the little chambers thereof , and the posts thereof , and the arches thereof , were according to these measures : and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about : it was fifty cubits long , and five and twenty cubits broad . * And the arches thereof were toward the outward court ; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof , on this side , and on that side : and the going up to it had eight steps . * And he brought me to the north gate , and measured it according to these measures ; * The little chambers thereof , the posts thereof , and the arches thereof , and the windows to it round about : the length was fifty cubits , and the breadth five and twenty cubits . * And the posts thereof were toward the utter court ; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof , on this side , and on that side : and the going up to it had eight steps . * And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates , where they washed the burnt offering . * And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side , and two tables on that side , to slay thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering . * And at the side without , as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate , were two tables ; and on the other side , which was at the porch of the gate , were two tables . * Four tables were on this side , and four tables on that side , by the side of the gate ; eight tables , whereupon they slew their sacrifices . * And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offering , of a cubit and an half long , and a cubit and an half broad , and one cubit high : whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice . * And within were hooks , an hand broad , fastened round about : and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering . * And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inner court , which was at the side of the north gate ; and their prospect was toward the south : one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north . * And he said unto me , This chamber , whose prospect is toward the south , is for the priests , the keepers of the charge of the house . * And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests , the keepers of the charge of the altar : these are the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi , which come near to the LORD to minister unto him . * So he measured the court , an hundred cubits long , and an hundred cubits broad , foursquare ; and the altar that was before the house . * And he brought me to the porch of the house , and measured each post of the porch , five cubits on this side , and five cubits on that side : and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side , and three cubits on that side . * The length of the porch was twenty cubits , and the breadth eleven cubits ; and he brought me by the steps whereby they went up to it : and there were pillars by the posts , one on this side , and another on that side . * Afterward he brought me to the temple , and measured the posts , six cubits broad on the one side , and six cubits broad on the other side , which was the breadth of the tabernacle .
