Ezek 39
1
And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus says the Lord YHWH: Behold,
I am against you, O Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal:
2
and I will turn you about, and will lead you on, and will cause you to come up from
the uttermost parts of the north; and I will bring you upon the mountains of Israel;
3
and I will smite your bow out of your left hand, and will cause your arrows to fall
out of your right hand.
4
You shall fall upon the mountains of Israel, you, and all your hordes, and the peoples
that are with you: I will give you to the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the
beasts of the field to be devoured.
5
You shall fall upon the open field; for I have spoken it, says the Lord YHWH.
6
And I will send a fire on Magog, and on them that dwell securely in the isles; and
they shall know that I am YHWH.
7
And my holy name will I make known in the midst of my people Israel; neither will
I suffer my holy name to be profaned any more: and the nations shall know that I am
YHWH, the Holy One in Israel.
8
Behold, it comes, and it shall be done, says the Lord YHWH; this is the day whereof
I have spoken.
9
And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall make fires of
the weapons and burn them, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows,
and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall make fires of them seven years;
10
so that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the
forests; for they shall make fires of the weapons; and they shall plunder those that
plundered them, and rob those that robbed them, says the Lord YHWH.
11
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give to Gog a place for burial
in Israel, the valley of them that pass through on the east of the sea; and it shall
stop them that pass through: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude;
and they shall call it The valley of Hamon-gog.
12
And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying them, that they may cleanse
the land.
13
Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown
in the day that I shall be glorified, says the Lord YHWH.
14
And they shall set apart men of continual employment, that shall pass through the
land, and, with them that pass through, those that bury them that remain upon the
face of the land, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.
15
And they that pass through the land shall pass through; and when any sees a man`s
bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley
of Hamon-gog.
16
And Hamonah shall also be the name of a city. Thus shall they cleanse the land.
17
And you, son of man, thus says the Lord YHWH: Speak to the birds of every sort, 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 you may eat flesh and drink blood.
18
You 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.
19
And you shall eat fat till you be full, and drink blood till you be drunken, of my
sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20
And you shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and
with all men of war, says the Lord YHWH.
21
And I will set my glory among the nations; and all the nations shall see my judgment
that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.
22
So the house of Israel shall know that I am YHWH their God, from that day and forward.
23
And the nations shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their
iniquity; because they trespassed against me, and I hid my face from them: so I gave
them into the hand of their adversaries, and they fell all of them by the sword.
24
According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions did I to them;
and I hid my face from them.
25
Therefore thus says the Lord YHWH: Now will I bring back the captivity of Jacob, and
have mercy upon the whole house of Israel; and I will be jealous for my holy name.
26
And they shall bear their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed
against me, when they shall dwell securely in their land, and none shall make them
afraid;
27
when I have brought them back from the peoples, and gathered them out of their enemies`
lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations.
28
And they shall know that I am YHWH their God, in that I caused them to go into captivity
among the nations, and have gathered them to their own land; and I will leave none
of them any more there;
29
neither will I hide my face any more from them; for I have poured out my Spirit upon
the house of Israel, says the Lord YHWH.
