Text size Chapter

¹ And the word of the LORD came unto me saying ⚑

² Son of man set thy face against Gog the land of Magog the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal and prophesy against him ⚑

³ And say Thus saith the Lord GOD Behold I am against thee O Gog the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal ⚑

⁴ And I will turn thee back and put hooks into thy jaws and I will bring thee forth and all thine army horses and horsemen all of them clothed with all sorts of armour even a great company with bucklers and shields all of them handling swords ⚑

⁵ Persia Ethiopia and Libya with them all of them with shield and helmet ⚑

⁶ Gomer and all his bands the house of Togarmah of the north quarters and all his bands and many people with thee ⚑

⁷ Be thou prepared and prepare for thyself thou and all thy company that are assembled unto thee and be thou a guard unto them ⚑

⁸ After many days thou shalt be visited in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword and is gathered out of many people against the mountains of Israel which have been always waste but it is brought forth out of the nations and they shall dwell safely all of them ⚑

⁹ Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land thou and all thy bands and many people with thee ⚑

¹⁰ Thus saith the Lord GOD It shall also come to pass that at the same time shall things come into thy mind and thou shalt think an evil thought ⚑

¹¹ And thou shalt say I will go up to the land of unwalled villages I will go to them that are at rest that dwell safely all of them dwelling without walls and having neither bars nor gates ⚑

¹² To take a spoil and to take a prey to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations which have gotten cattle and goods that dwell in the midst of the land ⚑

¹³ Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all the young lions thereof shall say unto thee Art thou come to take a spoil hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey to carry away silver and gold to take away cattle and goods to take a great spoil ⚑

¹⁴ Therefore son of man prophesy and say unto Gog Thus saith the Lord GOD In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely shalt thou not know it ⚑

¹⁵ And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts thou and many people with thee all of them riding upon horses a great company and a mighty army ⚑

¹⁶ And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel as a cloud to cover the land it shall be in the latter days and I will bring thee against my land that the heathen may know me when I shall be sanctified in thee O Gog before their eyes ⚑

¹⁷ Thus saith the Lord GOD Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them ⚑

¹⁸ And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel saith the Lord GOD that my fury shall come up in my face ⚑

¹⁹ For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel ⚑

²⁰ So that the fishes of the sea and the fowls of the heaven and the beasts of the field and all creeping things that creep upon the earth and all the men that are upon the face of the earth shall shake at my presence and the mountains shall be thrown down and the steep places shall fall and every wall shall fall to the ground ⚑

²¹ And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains saith the Lord GOD every man’s sword shall be against his brother ⚑

²² And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood and I will rain upon him and upon his bands and upon the many people that are with him an overflowing rain and great hailstones fire and brimstone ⚑

²³ Thus will I magnify myself and sanctify myself and I will be known in the eyes of many nations and they shall know that I am the LORD ⚑
