Ezekiel 38:8-13

New American Standard Bible

^8 (A)After many days you will be summoned; in the latter years you will come into the land that is restored from the sword, whose inhabitants have been ^(B)gathered from many ^[a]nations to the ^(C)mountains of Israel which had been a continual place of ruins; but ^[b]its people were brought out from the ^[c]nations, and they are ^(D)living securely, all of them. ⁹ And you will go up, you will come ^(E)like a storm; you will be like a ^(F)cloud covering the land, you and all your troops, and many peoples with you.”

¹⁰ ‘This is what the Lord God says: “It will come about on that day, that ^[d]thoughts will come into your mind and you will ^(G)devise an evil plan, ¹¹ and you will say, ‘I will go up against the land of ^[e](H)unwalled villages. I will go against those who are ^(I)at rest, who live securely, all of them living without walls and having no bars or gates, ¹² to ^(J)capture spoils and to seize plunder, to turn your hand against the ruins that are now inhabited, and against the people who are gathered from the nations, who have acquired livestock and goods, who live at the ^[f]center of the world.’ ^13 (K)Sheba and ^(L)Dedan and the merchants of ^(M)Tarshish with all its ^[g]villages will say to you, ‘Have you come to capture spoils? Have you assembled your contingent to seize plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to capture great ^(N)spoils?’”’
