Ezekiel Chapter 39

1And you, son of Adam, prophesy against Gog, and say, ‘This is what my Lord the Lord says: «Here I am against you, Gog, foremost prince of Meshech and Tubal. 2And I will steer you and lead you, and I will bring you up from the remote parts of the north, and I will bring you to the mountains of Israel. 3Then I will strike your bow out of your left hand, and I will knock your arrows out of your right hand. 4You will fall on the mountains of Israel, you and all your battalions, as will the nations which are with you. I will make you food for birds of prey of every kind and the wild animals. 5You will fall in the open country, for I have spoken, says the Lord, the Lord. 6And I will send fire onto Magog, and onto those who live confidently in the coastlands, and they will know that I am the Lord. 7And I will make my holy name known among my people Israel, and I will not have my holy name profaned any more, and the Gentiles will know that I am the Lord, the holy one in Israel. 8Behold, it is coming, and it will be brought to pass, says the Lord, the Lord. That is the day which I have spoken of. 9And the inhabitants of the cities of Israel will go out and start a fire, and they will set weapons and bucklers and shields and bows and arrows and javelins and spears alight, and they will burn them in a fire for seven years. 10And they will no longer carry away wood from the countryside, nor will they hew it from the forests, for they will burn weapons in a fire, and they will plunder those who plundered them, and they will spoil those who spoiled them, says the Lord, the Lord. 11And it will come to pass on that day that I will give Gog a place there – a grave in Israel – in the valley of those who pass through, east of the sea, and it will block those who would pass through, for they will bury Gog and all his horde there, and they will call it the Valley of Hamon-Gog. 12And the house of Israel will be burying them for seven months, so as to cleanse the land. 13And all the people of the land will do the burying, and it will be to their renown – the day when I am glorified – says the Lord, the Lord. 14And men with an ongoing task will be selected to pass through the land, burying, with others passing through, those who remain on the face of the land, to cleanse it. And after seven months, they will investigate, 15and of those who pass through the land, if anyone sees a man's bone, he will build a way-mark next to it, to be there until the buriers have buried it, in the Valley of Hamon-Gog. 16And also the name of the city will be Hamonah. So they will cleanse the land.» ’ 17And as for you, son of Adam, this is what the Lord, the Lord, says: ‘Say to the birds of every kind and to all the wild animals,

«Gather and come,

And congregate round about at my sacrifice

Which I am making for you

A great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel –

And you will eat flesh and drink blood.

18You shall eat the flesh of warriors

And drink the blood of the princes of the earth.

They are all as rams and fatted lambs and goats and bulls

– The fatted animals of Bashan.

19And you will eat fat to the full,

And you will drink blood until you are drunk from my sacrifice

Which I have made for you.

20And you will be satisfied at my table,

With horses and chariots

And warriors and all kinds of men of war,

Says my Lord the Lord.

21And I will present my glory among the Gentiles, and all the Gentiles will see my judgment which I executed, and my hand which I laid on them. 22And the house of Israel will know that I am the Lord their God from that day on. 23And the Gentiles will know that the house of Israel was deported for their iniquity, because they acted treacherously against me, so I hid my face from them, and I delivered them into the hands of their adversaries, and they all fell by the sword. 24I dealt with them according to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions, and I hid my face from them.» ’ 25Therefore this is what the Lord, the Lord, says: ‘Now I will reverse the captivity of Jacob, and I will have compassion on the whole house of Israel, and I will be zealous for my holy name. 26And they will have borne their shame and all their treachery which they engaged in against me when they lived on their land in security, with no-one making them afraid, 27when I bring them back from the various peoples, and I gather them from the countries of their enemies, and I am sanctified among them in the sight of many nations. 28And they will know that I am the Lord their God, who deported them to the Gentiles. And I will collect them on their land; I will not leave any of them there any longer. 29And I will no longer hide my face from them when I have poured out my spirit on the house of Israel, says the Lord, the Lord.’ ”
