Ezekiel 39

1 “And you, son of man, prophesy concerning Gog, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, O Gog, Chief prince of [[or prince of Rosh, ]] Meshech and Tubal,

And do thou, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, prince of Resh, Meshech, and Tubal!

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

I will turn thee, and lead thee about, and cause thee to come up from the regions of the North. and bring thee upon the mountains of Israel.

3 And have struck your bow out of your left hand, Indeed, I cause your arrows to fall out of your right.

And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.

4 You fall on mountains of Israel, You, and all your bands, and the peoples who [are] with you, To ravenous bird—a bird of every wing, And [to] a beast of the field, I have given you for food.

Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou and all thy hosts, and the nations that are with thee. To the ravenous birds of every wing, and to the beasts of the forest, give I thee to be devoured.

5 You fall on the face of the field, for I have spoken, A declaration of Lord YHWH.

Thou shalt fall upon the open field; for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Jehovah.

6 And I have sent a fire against Magog, And against the confident inhabitants of the islands, And they have known that I [am] YHWH.

And I will send a fire upon Magog, and upon them that dwell in security in the sea-coasts; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.

7 And I make My holy Name known in the midst of My people Israel, And I do not defile My holy Name anymore, And the nations have known that I, YHWH, the Holy One, [am] in Israel.

So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel, and I will not suffer my holy name to be polluted any more; and the nations shall

8 Behold, it has come, and it has been done, A declaration of Lord YHWH, It [is] the day of which I spoke.

know that I am Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel. Behold it cometh, and shall be done, saith the Lord Jehovah. This is the day of which I spake.

9 And those dwelling [in the] cities of Israel have gone out, And they have burned and kindled [a fire], With armor, and shield, and buckler, With bow, and with arrows, And with hand weapon, and with javelin, And they have caused a fire to burn seven years with them,

Then shall the inhabitants of the cities of Israel go forth, and set on fire and burn the weapons, the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, the hand-staves and the spears, and they shall make fires of them seven years.

10 And they do not take wood out of the field, Nor do they hew out of the forests, For they cause the fire to burn with armor, And they have spoiled their spoilers, And they have plundered their plunderers, A declaration of Lord YHWH.

They shall take no wood from the field, neither shall they cut down any from the forests; for they shall make their fires of the weapons. And they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and plunder those that plundered them, saith the Lord Jehovah.

11 And it has come to pass in that day, I give a place to Gog 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 it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give to Gog a place there, a grave in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea; and it shall stop the way of passengers. There shall they bury Gog and all his multitude, and they shall call it “The valley of the multitude of Gog.”

12 And the house of Israel has buried them—in order to cleanse the land—seven months.

And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying them, that they may cleanse the land.

13 Indeed, all the people of the land have buried them, and it has been to them for a name—the day of My being honored—a declaration of Lord YHWH.

Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be renown to them, in the day when I shall be glorified, saith the Lord Jehovah.

14 And they separate men for continual employment, with those passing through, passing on through the land, burying 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 be constantly employed, who, passing through the land, with the aid of those that pass by, shall bury those that remain upon the face of the land to cleanse it; at the end of the seven months shall they search.

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

And when any of the travellers that pass through the land shall see a man's bone, they shall set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of the multitude of Gog.

16 And also the name of the city [is] The Multitude; and they have cleansed the land.

Also the name of a city shall be Multitude. Thus shall they cleanse the land.

17 And you, son of man, thus said Lord YHWH: Say to the bird—every wing, and to every beast of the field: Be assembled and come in, Be gathered from all around, For My sacrifice that I am sacrificing for you, A great sacrifice on mountains of Israel, And you have eaten flesh, and drunk blood.

And thou, son of man, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Say to the birds of every wing, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves and come, gather yourselves from every side to my sacrifice which I make for you, a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel; and ye shall eat flesh and drink blood;

18 You eat [the] flesh of [the] mighty, And you drink [the] blood of [the] princes of the earth, Of rams, of lambs, and of male goats, Of calves, fatlings of Bashan—all of them.

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

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

And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I make for you.

20 And you have been satisfied at My table with horse and rider, Mighty man, and every man of war, A declaration of Lord YHWH.

Thus shall ye be filled at my table with horses and riders, and mighty men and warriors of all kinds, saith the Lord Jehovah.

21 And I have given My glory among nations, And all the nations have seen My judgment that I have done, And My hand that I have laid on them.

And I will set my glory among the nations, and all the nations shall see my judgment which I have executed, and my hand which I have laid upon them.

22 And the house of Israel has known that I [am] their God YHWH, From that day and from now on.

And the house of Israel shall know that I am Jehovah, their God, from that day and forward.

23 And the nations have known That the house of Israel was removed for their iniquity, Because they have trespassed against Me, And I hide My face from them, And give them into the hand of their adversaries, And they fall by sword—all of them.

And the nations shall know that the house of Israel were carried 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 that they all fell by the sword.

24 According to their uncleanness, And according to their transgressions, I have done with them, And I hide My face from them.

According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I dealt with them, and hid my face from them.

25 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Now 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 saith the Lord Jehovah: I will bring back the captives of Jacob, and have compassion upon the whole house of Israel, and be jealous for my holy name.

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

Then shall they forget their shame and all their trespasses with which they trespassed against me, when they dwell in security in their own land, and none maketh them afraid.

27 In 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 bring them back from the nations, and gather them from the lands of their enemies, then will I be glorified in regard to them before the eyes of many nations.

28 And they have known that I [am] their God YHWH, In My removing them to the nations, And I have gathered them to their land, And I leave none of them there anymore.

And they shall know that I am Jehovah their God, in that I caused them to be carried into captivity among the nations, and gathered them into their own land, and left none of them there.

29 And I do not hide My face from them anymore, In that I have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”

And I will hide my face from them no more; for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah.
