< Ezekiel 39 >

1 And you O son of humankind prophesy on Gog and you will say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] against you O Gog [the] prince of [the] head of Meshech and Tubal.
"You, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, 'Thus says YHWH: "Look, I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
2 And I will turn around you and I will lead on you and I will bring up you from [the] remotest parts of [the] north and I will bring you on [the] mountains of Israel.
and I will turn you around, drag you along, and bring you up from the remotest parts of the north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel.
3 And I will strike bow your from [the] hand of left your and arrows your from [the] hand of right your I will make fall.
Then I will strike your bow out of your left hand, and will make your arrows fall from your right hand.
4 On [the] mountains of Israel you will fall you and all troops your and peoples which [are] with you to bird[s] of prey of bird[s] every wing and [the] animal[s] of the field I will give you for food.
You will fall on the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops and the people who are with you. I will give you to birds of prey of every king and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
5 On [the] surface of the field you will fall for I I have spoken [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
You will fall in the open field; for I have spoken," says YHWH.
6 And I will send fire on Magog and on [the] inhabitants of the islands to security and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.
And I will send a fire on Magog and on those who dwell securely in the coastlands; then they will know that I am YHWH.
7 And [the] name of holiness my I will make known in among people my Israel and not I will let be profaned [the] name of holiness my again and they will know the nations that I Yahweh [am] holy in Israel.
"'And I will make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel, and I will not allow my holy name to be profaned anymore. And the nations shall know that I am YHWH, the Holy One in Israel.
8 There! [it is] coming and it will occur [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh it [is] the day which I have spoken.
Look, it is coming and it will happen, says YHWH. This is the day I have spoken about.
9 And they will go out [the] inhabitants of - [the] cities of Israel and they will kindle and they will kindle a fire with weapon and shield and body shield with bow and with arrows and with staff of hand and with spear and they will kindle with them fire seven years.
"'Then those who dwell in the cities of Israel shall go out and make fires of the weapons and burn them, both the shields and bucklers, bows and the arrows, war clubs and spears, and they shall make fires of them for seven years,
10 And not they will carry wood from the field and not they will cut [it] from the forests for with the weapon they will kindle fire and they will plunder [those who] plundered them and they will take as spoil [those who] took as spoil them [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
so that they shall no need to take wood out of the field or gather firewood from the forests, because they shall make fires of the weapons; and they will take the spoil from those who despoiled them, and plunder those who plundered them, says YHWH.
11 And it will be on the day that I will give to Gog - a place there a burial site in Israel [the] Valley of the Travellers [the] east of the sea and [will] block [the] way of it those [who] pass through and people will bury there Gog and all (multitude his *Q(K)*) and they will call [it] [the] valley of Hamon-Gog.
"'And it shall happen on that day that I will give to Gog a place for burial in Israel, the Valley of the Travelers east of the sea; and it shall block the way of the travelers. So they shall bury Gog and all his multitude; and they shall call it The Valley of Hamon Gog.
12 And they will bury them [the] house of Israel so as to cleanse the land seven months.
For seven months the house of Israel will be burying them, in order to cleanse the land.
13 And they will bury [them] all [the] people of the land and it will become for them a name [the] day of my glorifying myself [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
Yes, all the people of the land shall bury them, and it shall be a memorial for them on the day that I show my glory, says YHWH.
14 And people of continuity they will set apart [who] pass in the land [who] bury those [who] pass through those [who] remain on [the] surface of the land to cleanse it from [the] end of seven months they will make a search.
And they shall designate men to travel through the land regularly, burying those who remain on the face of the land, in order to cleanse it. At the end of seven months they shall make a search.
15 And they will pass those [who] pass in the land and they will see a bone of a human and he will build beside it a marker until they have buried it those [who] bury to [the] valley of Hamon-Gog.
As they go through the land and anyone sees a human bone, he will put a marker next to it until the gravediggers have buried it in the Valley of Hamon Gog.
16 And also [the] name of a city [is] Hamonah and they will cleanse the land.
Moreover, Hamonah will be the name of a city. Thus they shall cleanse the land.'
17 And you O son of humankind thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh say to bird[s] of every wing and to every - animal of the field assemble and come gather yourselves from round about to sacrifice my which I [am] sacrificing for you a sacrifice great on [the] mountains of Israel and you will eat flesh and you will drink blood.
"And as for you, son of man, thus says YHWH: Speak to every kind of bird and to all the wild animals, 'Assemble and come, gather from all around to my sacrifice which I am going to sacrifice for you, a great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, that you may eat flesh and drink blood.
18 [the] flesh of Warriors you will eat and [the] blood of [the] princes of the land you will drink rams lambs and goats bulls 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, and of goats, of bulls, all of them fattened animals of Bashan.
19 And you will eat fat to satiety and you will drink blood to drunkenness from sacrifice my which I have sacrificed for you.
And you shall eat fat until you are full, and drink blood until you are drunk, at my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20 And you will be satisfied at table my horse and charioteer warrior and every man of war [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
And you shall be filled at my table with horses and charioteers, with warriors and with all the soldiers,' says YHWH.
21 And I will set glory my among the nations and they will see all the nations judgment my which I have done and hand my which I have put on them.
"'And I will set my glory among the nations, and all the nations shall see my judgment when I have executed it and my hand when I lay it on them.
22 And they will know [the] house of Israel that I [am] Yahweh God their from the day that and onwards.
So the house of Israel shall know that I am YHWH their God, from that day on.
23 And they will know the nations that for iniquity their they went into exile [the] house of Israel on that they had acted unfaithfully against me and I hid face my from them and I gave them in [the] hand of opponents their and they fell by the sword all of them.
And the nations shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity, because they were unfaithful to me, so I hid my face from them, and I gave them into the hand of their adversaries, and all of them fell by the sword.
24 According to uncleanness their and according to transgressions their I have dealt them and I hid face my from them.
I dealt with them according to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions, and I hid my face from them.'
25 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh now I will turn back ([the] captivity of *Q(k)*) Jacob and I will have compassion on all [the] house of Israel and I will be zealous for [the] name of holiness my.
"Therefore thus says YHWH: 'Now will I restore the fortunes of Jacob and have mercy on the whole house of Israel, and I will be jealous for my holy name.
26 And they will bear disgrace their and all unfaithfulness their which they acted unfaithfully against me when dwell they on own land their to security and there not [will be one who] disturbs [them].
And they shall feel remorse for their disgrace and all the unfaithfulness they committed against me, when they dwell securely in their land with none to make them afraid.
27 When bring back I them from the peoples and I will gather them from [the] lands of enemies their and I will show myself holy by them to [the] eyes of the nations many.
When I have brought them back from the peoples and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, then I will be sanctified through them in the sight of the many nations.
28 And they will know that I [am] Yahweh God their because sent into exile I them to the nations and I will gather them to own land their and not I will leave behind again any of them there.
Then they will know that I am YHWH their God, because I sent them into exile among the nations, and then gathered them into their own land; and I will leave none of them there any more.
29 And not I will hide again face my from them [I] who I have poured out spirit my on [the] house of Israel [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
And I will no longer hide my face from them, when I pour out my Spirit on the house of Israel,' says YHWH."
