10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10They will not gather wood from the countryside or cut it down from the forests, for they will use the weapons to make fires.

11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Now on that day I will give Gog a burial place there in Israel--the Valley of the Travelers east of the Sea.

14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14They will appoint men on a full-time basis to pass through the land and bury the invaders who remain on the surface of the ground, in order to cleanse it. They will make their search at the end of the seven months. |

17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17Son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says: Tell every kind of bird and all the wild animals: Assemble and come! Gather from all around to My sacrificial feast that I am slaughtering for you, a great feast on the mountains of Israel; you will eat flesh and drink blood. |
18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18You will eat the flesh of mighty men and drink the blood of the earth's princes: rams, lambs, male goats, and all the fattened bulls of Bashan. |

23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23And the nations will know that the house of Israel went into exile on account of their iniquity, because they dealt unfaithfully with Me.

24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24I dealt with them according to their uncleanness and transgressions, and I hid My face from them." |
25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25So this is what the Lord GOD says: Now I will restore the fortunes of Jacob and have compassion on the whole house of Israel, and I will be jealous for My holy name. |
