1 And thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Behold me against thee, O Gog, prince of the head of Meshech and Tubal: 2 And I turned thee back, and I led thee, and I caused thee to come up from the thighs of the north, and I brought thee upon the mountains of Israel: 3 And I struck thy bow out of thy left hand, and thine arrows will I cause to fall from thy right hand. 4 Upon the mountains of Israel shalt thou fall, thou and all thy hosts, and the peoples which are with thee: to the ravenous bird, the bird of every wing, and to the beasts of the field I gave to consume. 5 Upon the face of the field thou shalt fall: for I spake, says the Lord Jehovah. 6 And I sent a fire upon Magog, and upon them dwelling with confidence in the islands: and they knew that I am Jehovah. 7 And I will make known my holy name in the midst of my people Israel; and I will no more profane my holy name: and the nations shall know that am Jehovah, the Holy One in Israel. 8 Behold, it came, and it was, says the Lord Jehovah; this the day which I spake. 9 And they dwelling in the cities of Israel went forth and kindled and set on fire with the weapons and the shield and the buckler, with the bow and with the arrows, and with the rods of the hand and with the spear, and they burnt a fire with them seven years: 10 And they shall not lift up wood from the field, and they shall not cut down from the forests; for they shall kindle fire with the weapons, and they spoiled those spoiling them, and they plundered those plundering them, says the Lord Jehovah. 11 And it was in that day, I will give to Gog a place there, a sepulchre in Israel, the valley of those passing through east of the sea: and it stopped those passing by: and they buried there Gog, and all his multitude: and they called the valley, The Multitude. 12 And the house of Israel buried them to cleanse the land seven months. 13 And they buried all the people of the land: and it was to them for name the day of honoring me; says the Lord Jehovah.
