Compare all
15 aThen you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.  
16 You will come up against My people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land. It will be in the latter days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may aknow Me, when I am bhallowed in you, O Gog, before their eyes.”  
17 Thus says the Lord God: “Are you he of whom I have spoken in former days by My servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied for years in those days that I would bring you against them?

Judgment on Gog

18 “And it will come to pass at the same time, when Gog comes against the land of Israel,” says the Lord God, “that My fury will show in My face.
19 For ain My jealousy band in the fire of My wrath I have spoken: c‘Surely in that day there shall be a great1 earthquake in the land of Israel,  
20 so that athe fish of the sea, the birds of the heavens, the beasts of the field, all creeping things that creep on the earth, and all men who are on the face of the earth shall shake at My presence. bThe mountains shall be thrown down, the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.’  
21 I will acall for ba sword against Gog throughout all My mountains,” says the Lord God. c“Every man’s sword will be against his brother.  
22 And I will abring him to judgment with bpestilence and bloodshed; cI will rain down on him, on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, flooding rain, dgreat hailstones, fire, and brimstone.  
23 Thus I will magnify Myself and asanctify Myself, band I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.” ’
