3 and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.

4 ^aI will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and ^blead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, ^call splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.

5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet;

6 ^aGomer and all its troops; the house of ^bTogarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you.
