Prophecy against Gog--Invaders Destroyed

1 “And ^ayou, son of man, prophesy against Gog and say, ‘This is what the Lord ^{▼▼Heb YHWH, usually rendered Lord, and so throughout the ch}God says: “Behold, I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal; 2 and I will turn you around, lead you on a rope, take you up from the remotest parts of the north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel. 3 Then I will ^cstrike your bow from your left hand and make your arrows fall from your right hand. 4 You will ^dfall on the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops, and the peoples who are with you; I will give you as ^efood to every ^{▼▼Lit wing}kind of predatory bird and animal of the field. 5 You will fall on the ^{▼▼Lit faces of the field}open field; for it is I who have spoken,” declares the Lord God. 6 “And I will send ^hfire upon Magog and those who inhabit the ⁱcoastlands in safety; and they will know that I am the Lord.

7 “And I will make My ^jholy name known in the midst of My people Israel; and I will not allow My holy name to be ^kprofaned anymore. But the ^lnations will know that I am the Lord, the ^mHoly One in Israel. 8 Behold, it is coming and it shall be done,” declares the Lord God. “That is the day of which I have spoken.

9 “Then those who inhabit the cities of Israel will ⁿgo out and make ^ofires with the weapons and burn them, both ^{▼▼I.e., small shields}bucklers and shields, bows and arrows, war clubs and spears, and for seven years they will make fires of them. 10 They will not take wood from the field or gather firewood from the forests, because they will make fires with the weapons; and they will take the spoils of those who plundered them and seize the ^qplunder of those who plundered them,” declares the Lord God.
