Ezk 38 and 39
Ezek 38:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Ezek 38:2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief
prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
Ezek 38:3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog,
the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
Ezek 38:4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will
bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed
with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of
them handling swords:
Ezek 38:5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and
helmet:
Ezek 38:6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north
quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.
Ezek 38:7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy
company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
Ezek 38:8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou
shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered
out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always
waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely
all of them.
Ezek 38:9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud
to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
Ezek 38:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the
same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
Ezek 38:11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages;
I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling
without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
Ezek 38:12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the
desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered
out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst
of the land.
Ezek 38:13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the
young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast
thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take
away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
Ezek 38:14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the
Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not
know it?
Ezek 38:15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou,
and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and
a mighty army:
Ezek 38:16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to
cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my
land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog,
before their eyes.
Ezek 38:17 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old
time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many
years that I would bring thee against them?
Ezek 38:18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come
against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my
face.
Ezek 38:19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken,
Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
Ezek 38:20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and
the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and
all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and
the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every
wall shall fall to the ground.
Ezek 38:21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my
mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man's sword shall be against his brother.
Ezek 38:22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I
will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with
him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
Ezek 38:23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be
known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Ezek 39:1 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:
Ezek 39:2 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:
Ezek 39:3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine
arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
Ezek 39:4 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.
Ezek 39:5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith
the Lord GOD.
Ezek 39:6 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.
Ezek 39:7 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.
Ezek 39:8 Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the
day whereof I have spoken.
Ezek 39:9 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:
Ezek 39:10 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.
Ezek 39:11 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.
Ezek 39:12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them,
that they may cleanse the land.
Ezek 39:13 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.
Ezek 39:14 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.
Ezek 39:15 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.
Ezek 39:16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they
cleanse the land.
Ezek 39:17 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.
Ezek 39:18 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.
Ezek 39:19 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.
Ezek 39:20 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.
Ezek 39:21 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.
Ezek 39:22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God
from that day and forward.
Ezek 39:23 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.
Ezek 39:24 According to their uncleanness and according to their
transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
Ezek 39:25 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;
Ezek 39:26 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.
Ezek 39:27 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;
Ezek 39:28 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.
Ezek 39:29 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.
