1 A nd thou, son of man, prophesy concerning Gog, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I against thee, O Gog, Prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal,

And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince (ruler) of Rosh, of Meshech, and of Tubal.

2 A nd have turned thee back, and enticed thee, And caused thee to come up from the sides of the north, And brought thee in against mountains of Israel,

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 will lead you against the mountains of Israel;

3 A nd have smitten thy bow out of thy left hand, Yea, thine arrows out of thy right I cause to fall.

And I will smite your bow from your left hand and will cause your arrows to fall out of your right hand.

4 O n mountains of Israel thou fallest, Thou, and all thy bands, and the peoples who with thee, To ravenous fowl -- a bird of every wing, And a beast of the field, I have given thee for food.

You shall fall upon the mountains of Israel, you and all your hosts and the peoples who 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 O n the face of the field thou fallest, for I have spoken, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

You shall fall in the open field, for I have spoken, says the Lord God.

6 A nd I have sent a fire against Magog, And against the confident inhabitants of the isles, And they have known that I Jehovah.

Behold, it is coming and it will be done, says the Lord God; that is the day of which I have spoken.

9 A nd gone out have the inhabitants of cities of Israel, And they have burned and kindled, With armour, and shield, and buckler, With bow, and with arrows, And with hand-staves, and with javelins, And they have caused a fire to burn with them seven years,

And they who dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth and shall set on fire and burn the battle gear, the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, the handspikes or riding whips and the spears; and they shall burn them as fuel for seven years,

10 A nd they do not take wood out of the field, Nor do they hew out of the forests, For with armour they cause the fire to burn, And they have spoiled their spoilers, And they have plundered their plunderers, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

So that My people shall take no firewood out of the field or cut down any out of the forests, for they shall make their fires of the weapons. And they shall despoil those who despoiled them and plunder those who plundered them, says the Lord God.

11 A nd it hath come to pass, in that day, I give to Gog a place there -- a grave in Israel, the valley of those passing by, east of the sea, and it is stopping those passing by, and they have buried there Gog, and all his multitude, and have cried, O valley of the multitude of Gog!

And in that day, I will give to Gog a place for burial there in Israel, the valley of those who pass through on the east side in front of the Sea, and it will delay and stop those who pass through. And there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude, and they shall call it the Valley of Hamon-gog.

14 A nd men for continual employment they separate, passing on through the land, burying with those passing by those who are left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it: at the end of seven months they search.

And they shall set apart men to work continually who shall pass through the land, men commissioned to bury, with the help of those who are passing by, those bodies that lie unburied on the face of the ground, in order to cleanse the land. After the end of seven months they shall make their search.

15 A nd those passing by have passed through the land, and seen a bone of man, and one hath constructed near it a sign till those burying have buried it in the valley of the multitude of Gog.

And when these pass through the land and anyone sees a human bone, he shall set up a marker by it as a sign to the buriers, until they have buried it in the Valley of Hamon-gog or of Gog’s multitude.

16 A nd also the name of the city The multitude; and they have cleansed the land.

And Hamonah shall also be the name of the city. Thus shall they cleanse the land.

And you, son of man, thus says the Lord God: Say to the birds of prey of every sort and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves and come, gather from every side to the sacrificial feast that I am preparing for you, even a great sacrificial feast on the mountains of Israel at which you may eat flesh and drink blood.

18 F lesh of the mighty ye do eat, And blood of princes of the earth ye drink, Of rams, of lambs, and of he-goats, Of calves, fatlings of Bashan -- all of them.

You shall eat the flesh of the mighty and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, of goats, and of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.

19 A nd ye have eaten fat to satiety, And ye have drunk blood -- to drunkenness, Of My sacrifice that I sacrificed for you.

And you shall eat fat till you are filled and drink blood till you are drunk at the sacrificial feast which I am preparing for you.

22 A nd known have the house of Israel that I Jehovah their God, From that day and henceforth.

So the house of Israel shall know, understand, and realize beyond all question that I am the Lord their God from that day forward.

According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions I dealt with them and hid My face from them.

25 T herefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Now do I bring back the captivity of Jacob, And I have pitied all the house of Israel, And have been zealous for My holy name.

Therefore thus says the Lord God: Now will I reverse the captivity of Jacob and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel and will be jealous for My holy name.

26 A nd they have forgotten their shame, And all their trespass that they trespassed against Me, In their dwelling on their land confidently and none troubling.

They shall forget their shame and self-reproach and all their treachery and unfaithfulness in which they have transgressed against Me, when they dwell securely in their land and there is none who makes them afraid.

27 I n My bringing them back from the peoples, I have assembled them from the lands of their enemies, And I have been sanctified in them before the eyes of the many nations,

When I have brought them again from the peoples and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and My justice and holiness are set apart and vindicated through them in the sight of many nations,

28 A nd they have known that I Jehovah their God, In My removing them unto the nations, And I have gathered them unto their land, And I leave none of them any more there.

Then shall they know, understand, and realize positively that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them into captivity and exile among the nations and then gathered them to their own land. I will leave none of them remaining among the nations any more.

29 A nd I hide not any more My face from them, In that I have poured out My spirit on the house of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'

Neither will I hide My face any more then from them, when I have poured out My Spirit upon the house of Israel, says the Lord God.
