| [1]And thou, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, Rhos prince of Mesoch and Thobel: |
[1]Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I come against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. |
| [2]and I will assemble thee, and guide thee, and raise thee up on the extremity of the north, and I will bring thee up upon the mountains of Israel. |
[2]And I will destroy thee 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: |
| [3]And I will destroy the bow out of thy left hand, and thine arrows out of thy right hand, and I will cast thee down on the mountains of Israel; |
[3]And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and I will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand. |
| [4]and thou and all that belong to thee shall fall, and the nations that are with thee shall be given to multitudes of birds, even to every fowl, and I have given thee to all the wild beasts of the field to be devoured. |
[4]Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, and all thy bands and the people, that is with thee: for I will give thee unto the birds and to every feathered fowl and beast of the field to be devoured. |
| [5]Thou shalt fall on the face of the field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord. |
[5]Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God. |
| [6]And I will send a fire upon Gog, and the islands shall be securely inhabited: and they shall know that I am the Lord. |
[6]And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell safely in the isles, and they shall know that I am the Lord. |
| [7]And my holy name shall be known in the midst of my people Israel; and my holy name shall no more be profaned: and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel. |
[7]So will I make mine holy name known in the midst of my people Israel, and I will not suffer them to pollute mine holy name anymore, and the heathen shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. |
| [8]Behold it is come, and thou shalt know that it shall be, saith the Lord God; this is the day concerning which I have spoken. |
[8]Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord God: and this is the day whereof I have spoken. |
| [9]And they that inhabit the cities of Israel shall come forth, and make a fire with the arms, the shields and the spears, and bows and arrows, and hand-staves, and lances, and they shall keep fire burning with them for seven years: |
[9]And they that dwell in the cities of Israel, shall go forth, and shall burn and set fire upon the weapons, and on the shields, and bucklers, upon the bows, and upon the arrows, and upon the staves in their hands, and upon the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years. |
| [10]and they shall not take any wood out of the field, neither shall they cut any out of the forests, but they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall plunder those that plundered them, and spoil those that spoiled them, saith the Lord. |
[10]So that they shall bring 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 rob those that robbed them, and spoil those that spoiled them, saith the Lord God. |
| [11]And it shall come to pass that in that day I will give to Gog a place of renown, a tomb in Israel, the burial-place of them that approach the sea: and they shall build round about the outlet of the valley, and there they shall bury Gog and all his multitude: and the place shall then be called the burial-place of Gog. |
[11]And at the same time will I give unto Gog a place there for burial in Israel, even the valley whereby men go toward the east part of the sea: and it shall cause them that pass by, to stop their noses, and there shall they bury Gog with all his multitude: and they shall call it the valley of Hamon-Gog. |
| [12]And the house of Israel shall bury them, that the land may be cleansed in the space of seven months. |
[12]And seven months long shall the house of Israel be burying of 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 place of renown in the day wherein it was glorified, saith the Lord. |
[13]Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them, and they shall have a name when I shall be glorified, saith the Lord God. |
| [14]And they shall appoint men continually to go over the land, to bury them that have been left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it after the space of seven months, and they shall seek them out. |
[14]And they shall choose out men to go continually through the land with them that travail, to bury those that remain upon the ground, and cleanse it: they shall search to the end of seven months. |
| [15]And every one that goes through the land, and sees a man's bone, shall set up a mark by it, until the buriers shall have buried it in the valley, the burial place of Gog. |
[15]And the travailers that pass through the land, if any see 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]For the name of the city shall be Burial-place: so shall the land be cleansed. |
[16]And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah: thus shall they cleanse the land. |
| [17]And thou, son of man, say, Thus saith the Lord; Say to every winged bird, and to all the wild beasts of the field, Gather yourselves, and come; gather yourselves from all places round about to my sacrifice, which I have made for you, even a great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, and ye shall eat flesh, and drink blood. |
[17]And thou son of man, thus saith the Lord God, Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to all the beasts of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice: for I do sacrifice a great sacrifice for you upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood. |
| [18]Ye shall eat the flesh of mighty men, and ye shall drink the blood of princes of the earth, rams, and calves and goats, and they are all fatted calves. |
[18]Ye shall eat the flesh of the valiant, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of the weathers, of the lambs, and of the goats, and of bullocks, even of all fat beasts of Bashan. |
| [19]And ye shall eat fat till ye are full, and shall drink wine till ye are drunken, of my sacrifice which I have prepared for you. |
[19]And ye shall eat fat till you be full, and drink blood, till ye be drunken of my sacrifice, which I have sacrificed for you. |
| [20]And ye shall be filled at my table, eating horse, and rider, and mighty man, and every warrior, saith the Lord. |
[20]Thus you shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with valiant men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord God. |
| [21]And I will set my glory among you, and all the nations shall see my judgment which I have wrought, and my hand which I have brought upon them. |
[21]And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment, that I have executed, and mine hand, which I have laid upon them. |
| [22]And the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God, from this day and onwards. |
[22]So the house of Israel shall know, that I am the Lord their God from that day and so forth. |
| [23]And all the nations shall know that the house of Israel were led captive because of their sins, because they rebelled against me, and I turned away my face from them, and delivered them into the hands of their enemies, and they all fell by the sword. |
[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. |
| [24]According to their uncleannesses and according to their transgressions did I deal with them, and I turned away my face from them. |
[24]According to their uncleanness, and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them. |
| [25]Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Now will I turn back captivity in Jacob, and will have mercy on the house of Israel, and will be jealous for the sake of my holy name. |
[25]Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have compassion upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for mine holy name, |
| [26]And they shall bear their reproach, and the iniquity which they committed when they dwelt upon their land in peace. Yet there shall be none to terrify them |
[26]After that they have born their shame, and all their transgression, whereby they have transgressed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and without fear of any. |
| [27]when I have brought them back from the nations, and gathered them out of the countries of the nations: and I will be sanctified among them in the presence of the nations. |
[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, |
| [28]And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, when I have been manifested to them among the nations. |
[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 anymore there, |
| [29]And I will no more turn away my face from them, because I have poured out my wrath upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God. |
[29]Neither will I hide my face anymore from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God. |
