Ezekiel 38:17-39:6
New King James Version
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 (A)in My jealousy (B)and in the fire of My wrath I have spoken: (C)‘Surely in that day there shall be a great [a]earthquake in the land of Israel, 20 so that (D)the 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. (E)The mountains shall be thrown down, the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.’ 21 I will (F)call for (G)a sword against Gog throughout all My mountains,” says the Lord God. (H)“Every man’s sword will be against his brother. 22 And I will (I)bring him to judgment with (J)pestilence and bloodshed; (K)I will rain down on him, on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, flooding rain, (L)great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. 23 Thus I will magnify Myself and (M)sanctify Myself, (N)and I will be known in the eyes of many nations. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.” ’
Gog’s Armies Destroyed
39 “And (O)you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, [b]the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal; 2 and I will (P)turn you around and lead you on, (Q)bringing 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 (R)You shall [c]fall upon the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops and the peoples who are with you; (S)I will give you to birds of prey of every sort and to the beasts of the field to be devoured. 5 You shall [d]fall on [e]the open field; for I have spoken,” says the Lord God. 6 (T)“And I will send fire on Magog and on those who live [f]in security in (U)the coastlands. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.

21st Century King James Version
17 “‘Thus saith the Lord God: Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old times by My servants the prophets of Israel who prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?
18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that My fury shall come upon My face.
19 For in My jealousy and in the fire of My wrath have I spoken: Surely on that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel,
20 so that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that 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 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all My mountains, saith the Lord God. Every man’s sword shall be against his brother.
22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him and upon his troops and upon the many people that are with him an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
23 Thus will I magnify Myself and sanctify Myself, and I will be known in the eyes of many nations; and they shall know that I am the Lord.’
39 “Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog and say, ‘Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.
2 And I will turn thee back and leave but a sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel;
3 and I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
4 Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou and all thy forces and the people that are with thee. I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field, for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.
6 And I will send a fire on Magog and among them that dwell confidently in the isles; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
