“Now as for ^ayou, son of man, prophesy against Gog and say, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, ¹chief prince of Meshech and Tubal; 2 and I will turn you around, drive you on, take you up from the remotest parts of the north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel. 3 And I will ^astrike your bow from your left hand and cause your arrows from your right hand to fall. 4 You will ^afall on the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops and the peoples who are with you; I will give you as ^bfood to every ¹kind of predatory bird and beast of the field. 5 You will fall on the ¹open field; for it is I who have spoken,” declares Lord Yahweh. 6 “And I will send ^afire upon Magog and those who inhabit the ^bcoastlands securely; and they will know that I am Yahweh.

7 “And My ^aholy name I will make known in the midst of My people Israel; and I will not let My holy name be ^bprofaned anymore. And the ^cnations will know that I am Yahweh, the ^dHoly One in Israel. 8 Behold, it is coming, and it shall be done,” declares Lord Yahweh. “That is the day of which I have spoken.

9 “Then those who inhabit the cities of Israel will ^ago out and make ^bfires with the weapons and burn them, both shields and large shields, bows and arrows, war clubs and spears; and for seven years they will make fires of them. 10 They will not carry wood from the field or gather firewood from the forests, for they will make fires with the weapons; and they will take the spoil of those who made them into spoil and seize the ^aplunder of those who plundered them,” declares Lord Yahweh.

11 “And it will be in that day, that I will give Gog a burial ground there in Israel, the valley of those who pass by east of the sea, and it will block off those who would pass by. So they will bury Gog there with all his multitude, and they will call it the valley of ¹Hamon-gog. 12 And for seven months the house of Israel will be burying them in order to ^acleanse the land. 13 Even all the people of the land will bury them; and it will be ¹unto their ^aname on the day that I ^bglorify Myself,” declares Lord Yahweh. 14 “Now they will set apart men who will continually pass through the land, ^aburying those who were passing through, even those left on the surface of the ground, in order to cleanse it. At the end of seven months they will make a search. 15 And those who pass through the land will pass through, and when anyone sees a man’s bone, he will ¹set up a marker by it until the buriers have buried it in the valley of ²Hamon-gog. 16 And even the name of the city will be Hamonah. So they will cleanse the land.”’

17 “Now as for you, son of man, thus says Lord Yahweh, ‘Say to every ¹kind of ^abird and to every ^bbeast of the field, “Gather and come, assemble from every side to My sacrifice which I am going to ^csacrifice for you, as a great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, that you may eat flesh and drink blood. 18 You will ^aeat the flesh of mighty men and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, as though they were ^brams, lambs, goats, and ^cbulls, all of them fatlings of ^dBashan. 19 So you will eat fat until you are satisfied and drink blood until you are drunk, from My sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you. 20 And you will be satisfied at My table with ^ahorses and charioteers, with mighty men and all the men of war,” declares Lord Yahweh.

21 “And I will put My ^aglory among the nations; and all the nations will see My judgment which I have executed and My hand which I have placed on them. 22 And the house of Israel will ^aknow that I am Yahweh their God from that day onward. 23 And the nations will know that the house of Israel went into exile for their ^ainiquity because they acted unfaithfully against Me, and I ^bhid My face from them; so I gave them into the hand of their adversaries, and all of them fell by the sword. 24 ^aAccording to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions I dealt with them, and I hid My face from them.”’”

25 Therefore thus says Lord Yahweh, “Now I will return the ^1afortunes of Jacob and have compassion on the whole ^bhouse of Israel; and I will be ^cjealous for My holy name. 26 So they will ^1aforget their dishonor and all their unfaithfulness which they ²perpetrated against Me, when they ^blive securely on their own land with ^cno one to make them tremble. 27 When I ^areturn them from the peoples and gather them from the lands of their enemies, then I shall ^bprove Myself holy ¹through them in the sight of the many nations. 28 Then they will know that I am Yahweh their God because I made them go into exile among the nations, and then collected them again to their own land; and I will leave none of them there any longer. 29 And I will not hide My face from them any longer, for I will have ^apoured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,” declares Lord Yahweh.
