The Lord’s Great Victory Over the Nations

38 The word of the Lord came to me: ² “Son of man, set your face against Gog,^(A) of the land of Magog,^(B) the chief prince of^[a] Meshek and Tubal;^(C) prophesy against him

⁷ “‘Get ready; be prepared,^(A) you and all the hordes gathered about you, and take command of them. ⁸ After many days^(B) you will be called to arms. In future years you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations^(C) to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and now all of them live in safety.^(D)

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.
