Judgment on Gog

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 in those days for many years that I would bring you against them? 18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog comes against the land of Israel, says the Lord God, that My fury shall come up in My anger. 19 For in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath I have spoken: Surely in that day there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel. 20 The fish of the sea and the fowl of the heavens and the beasts of the field and all creeping things that creep upon the earth and all the men who are upon the face of the earth shall shake at My presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground. 21 I will call for a sword against him on all My mountains, says the Lord God. Every man’s sword shall be against his brother. 22 I will enter into judgment with him with pestilence and with blood. And I will rain upon him and upon his troops and upon the many peoples who are with him, an overflowing rain and hailstones, fire and brimstone. 23 Thus I will magnify Myself, and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.

The Destruction of Gog’s Armies

39 Moreover you, son of man, prophesy against Gog and say: Thus says the Lord God: I am against you, O Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshek, and Tubal. And I will turn you back, drive you on, and take you up the north parts and bring you against the mountains of Israel. And I will strike your bow out of your left hand and will cause your arrows to fall out of your right hand. You shall fall upon the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops and the peoples who are with you. I will give you to the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured. You shall fall upon the open field. For I have spoken, says the Lord God. I will send a fire on Magog and among those who dwell safely in the coastlands. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.

17 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: You are the one I spoke of in former days by my servants the prophets of Israel. At that time they prophesied for years that I would bring you against them. 18 This is what will happen in that day: When Gog attacks the land of Israel, my hot anger will be aroused, declares the Sovereign Lord. 19 In my zeal and fiery wrath I declare that at that time there shall be a great earthquake(A) in the land of Israel.(B) 20 The fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the beasts of the field, every creature that moves along the ground, and all the people on the face of the earth will tremble(C) at my presence. The mountains will be overturned,(D) the cliffs will crumble(E) and every wall will fall to the ground.(F) 21 I will summon a sword(G) against Gog on all my mountains, declares the Sovereign Lord. Every man’s sword will be against his brother.(H) 22 I will execute judgment(I) on him with plague and bloodshed;(J) I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones(K) and burning sulfur(L) on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him.(M) 23 And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.(N)

39 “Son of man, prophesy against Gog(O) and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of[a] Meshek(P) and Tubal.(Q) I will turn you around and drag you along. I will bring you from the far north(R) and send you against the mountains of Israel.(S) Then I will strike your bow(T) from your left hand and make your arrows(U) drop from your right hand. On the mountains of Israel you will fall, you and all your troops and the nations with you. I will give you as food to all kinds of carrion birds(V) and to the wild animals.(W) You will fall in the open field, for I have spoken, declares the Sovereign Lord.(X) I will send fire(Y) on Magog(Z) and on those who live in safety in the coastlands,(AA) and they will know(AB) that I am the Lord.
