Ezekiel 39

1 Thou therefore son of man. Prophesy against Gog, and thou shalt say, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh: Behold me! against thee O Gog Prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal.

And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus says the Lord; Behold, I am against you, O Gog, Rhos prince of Mesoch and Thobel:

2 Therefore will I turn thee about and lead thee on, and cause thee to come up out of the remote parts of the North, - And will bring thee in upon the mountains of Israel;

and I will assemble you, and guide you, and raise you up on the extremity of the north, and I will bring you up upon the mountains of Israel.

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

And I will destroy the bow out of your left hand, and your arrows out of your right hand, and I will cast you down on the mountains of Israel;

4 Upon the mountains of Israel, shalt thou fall, Thou and all thy hordes, and the peoples who are with thee, — To birds of prey of every wing. and the wild beast of the field, will I give thee for food:

and you and all that belong to you shall fall, and the nations that are with you shall be given to multitudes of birds, [even] to every fowl, and I have given you to all the wild beasts of the field to be devoured.

5 Upon the, face of the field, shalt thou fall, - For I, have spoken, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.

You shall fall on the face of the field: for I have spoken [it], says the Lord.

6 And I will send a fire into Magog, And among them who are dwelling in the Coastlands securely, — So shalt thou know that I am Yahweh.

And I will send a fire upon Gog, and the islands shall be securely inhabited: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

7 And my holy Name, will I make known in the midst of my people Israel, And will not suffer my holy Name to be profaned any more, — So shall the nations know that, I am Yahweh, Holy in Israel.

And my holy name shall be known in the midst of my people Israel; and my holy name shall no more be profaned: and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy [One] in Israel.

8 Lo! it is coming, and shall be brought to pass, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh, -the same, is the day whereof I had spoken.

Behold it is come, and you shall know that it shall be, says the Lord God; this is the day concerning which I have spoken.

9 Then shall go forth the dwellers of the cities of Israel and shall make fires of the weapons and burn them, Both buckler and shield, bow and arrows, and handstaff and spear, - And shall make fires of them seven years;

And they that inhabit the cities of Israel shall come forth, and make a fire with the arms, the shields and the spears, and bows and arrows, and hand-staves, and lances, and they shall keep fire burning with them for seven years:

10 And they shall not take wood out of the field Neither shall they cut down out of the forests, - For of the armour, shall they make fires, - So shall they spoil those who spoiled them And prey on those who preyed on them, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.

and they shall not take any wood out of the field, neither shall they cut any out of the forests, but they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall plunder those that plundered them, and spoil those that spoiled them, says the Lord.

11 And it shall come to pass in that day that I will give to Gog a place of memorial for burial in Israel even the valley of them that pass through east of the sea, And it shall be enough to keep back them who would pass through, - and they shall bury there Gog and all his multitude, and shall call it Ge-hamon-gog. [That is "The valley of the multitude of Gog."]

And it shall come to pass [that] in that day I will give to Gog a place of renown, a tomb in Israel, the burial-place of them that approach the sea: and they shall build round about the outlet of the valley, and there they shall bury Gog and all his multitude: and [the place] shall then be called the burial-place of Gog.

12 So shall the house of Israel bury them (that they may cleanse the land) —seven months;

And the house of Israel shall bury them, that the land may be cleansed in the space of seven months.

13 Yea all the people of the land, shall bury, and it shall become to them a memorial, —the day that I get myself glory, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.

Yes, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a [place] of renown in the day wherein it was glorified, says the Lord.

14 And, men to keep at it constantly, shall they tell off Men to pass throughout the land, who with the passers-by, shall continue burying, them who have been left on the face of the land to cleanse it, — At the end of seven months, shall they make search.

And they shall appoint men continually to go over the land, to bury them that have been left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it after the space of seven months, and they shall seek [them] out.

15 And when any of the passers-by, in going through the land, shall see a human bone, then shall he set up near it a sign, —until the buriers have buried it, in Ge-hamon-Gog.

And every one that goes through the land, and sees a man's bone, shall set up a mark by it, until the buriers shall have buried it in the valley, the burial place of Gog.

16 Moreover, the name of a city, shall be Hamonah ["To the multitude"] so shall they cleanse the land.

For the name of the city [shall be] Burial-place: so shall the land be cleansed.

17 Thou, therefore son of man, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Say to the bird of every wing. And to every wild beast of the field. Assemble yourselves and come Gather yourselves from every side, unto my sacrifice which I am sacrificing for you A great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, - And ye shall eat flesh and drink blood:

And you, son of man, say, Thus says the Lord; Say to every winged bird, and to all the wild beasts of the field, Gather yourselves, and come; gather yourselves from all [places] round about to my sacrifice, which I have made for you, [even] a great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, and you shall eat flesh, and drink blood.

18 The flesh of mighty men, shall ye eat, And the blood of the princes of the earth, shall ye drink.— Rams well-fed lambs and he-goats bullocks, Fatlings of Bashan all of them;

You shall eat the flesh of mighty men, and you shall drink the blood of princes of the earth, rams, and calves and goats, and they are all fatted calves.

19 And ye shall eat fat till ye are sated, And drink blood till ye are drunken, Of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you;

And you shall eat fat till you are full, and shall drink wine till you are drunken, of my sacrifice which I have prepared for you.

20 So shall ye be sated at my table with horse and chariot team, mighty man and every man of war, — Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.

And you shall be filled at my table, [eating] horse, and rider, and mighty man, and every warrior, says the Lord.

21 Thus will I 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.

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

22 So shall the house of Israel know that, I Yahweh, am their God, —from that day and forward;

And the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God, from this day and onwards.

23 And the nations shall know That in their iniquity, were the house of Israel exiled because they had committed treachery against me, And so I hid my face from them, — And gave them into the hand of their adversaries, And they fell by the sword all of them.

And all the nations shall know that the house of Israel were led captive because of their sins, because they rebelled against me, and I turned away my face from them, and delivered them into the hands of their enemies, and they all fell by the sword.

24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions, dealt I with them, — And so I hid my face from them.

According to their uncleannesses and according to their transgressions did I deal with them, and I turned away my face from them.

25 Therefore— Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Now, will I bring back them of the captivity of Jacob, And have compassion upon all the house of Israel, - And will be jealous for my holy Name;

Therefore thus says the Lord God, Now will I turn back captivity in Jacob, and will have mercy on the house of Israel, and will be jealous for the sake of my holy name.

26 And they shall bear their confusion, and the punishment of all their treachery wherewith they have committed treachery against me, - When they dwell upon their own soil securely, with none to make them afraid;

And they shall bear their reproach, and the iniquity which they committed when they lived upon their land in peace. Yet there shall be none to terrify [them]

27 When I have brought them back from among the peoples, And gathered them out of the lands of their enemies, - So will I hallow myself in them, before the eyes of the many nations;

when I have brought them back from the nations, and gathered them out of the countries of the nations: and I will be sanctified among them in the presence of the nations.

28 And they shall know that, I Yahweh, am their God, When I have carried them into exile among the nations, And shall then gather them upon their own soil, - And shall no more leave any of them there.

And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, when I have been manifested to them among the nations.

29 Neither will I any more hide my face from them, — In that I have poured out my spirit, upon the house of Israel, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.

And I will no more turn away my face from them, because I have poured out my wrath upon the house of Israel, says the Lord God.
