Ezekiel 39:1

Gog’s Armies Destroyed

1 “And ^ayou, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog,¹ the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal;

2 and I will ^aturn you around and lead you on, ^bbringing you up from the far north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel.

3 Then I will knock the bow out of your left hand, and cause the arrows to fall out of your right hand.

4 ^aYou shall fall upon the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops and the peoples who are with you; ^bI will give you to birds of prey of every sort and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.

5 You shall fall on the open field; for I have spoken,” says the Lord God.

6 ^a“And I will send fire on Magog and on those who live in security in ^bthe coastlands. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.

7 ^aSo I will make My holy name known in the midst of My people Israel, and I will not let them ^bprofane My holy name anymore. ^cThen the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel.

8 ^aSurely it is coming, and it shall be done,” says the Lord God. “This is the day ^bof which I have spoken.
