Ezequiel 39
Dios Habla Hoy
Derrota de Gog
39 »Y tú, hombre, habla en mi nombre contra Gog, y dile: “Esto dice el Señor: Gog, jefe supremo de Mésec y Tubal, yo me declaro tu enemigo. 2 Te voy a hacer volver; paso a paso te voy a sacar de lo más lejano del norte y te voy a traer a las montañas de Israel. 3 Luego romperé el arco que llevas en la mano izquierda y haré caer las flechas que llevas en la derecha. 4 Y tú, con tus ejércitos y pueblos que te acompañan, caerás muerto en las montañas de Israel. Allí los entregaré a toda clase de aves de rapiña y de fieras salvajes, para que se los coman. 5 Quedarán tendidos en campo abierto. Yo, el Señor, he hablado. Yo he dado mi palabra. 6 Enviaré fuego sobre Magog y sobre los que viven tranquilos en los países del mar. Entonces reconocerán que yo soy el Señor. 7 Yo haré que mi santo nombre sea conocido de mi pueblo Israel, y no permitiré que siga siendo profanado. Y las naciones extranjeras sabrán que yo, el Señor, muestro mi santidad en Israel. 8 El día de que hablo va a llegar sin falta. Yo, el Señor, lo afirmo.”
9 »Los habitantes de las ciudades de Israel saldrán y quemarán sus armas, sus diversas clases de escudos, arcos, flechas, jabalinas y lanzas, y tendrán leña suficiente para hacer fuego durante siete años. 10 No tendrán necesidad de salir al campo a recoger leña, ni de cortarla en los bosques, porque todas esas armas les servirán de leña. Así ellos saquearán a quienes antes los habían saqueado, y despojarán a quienes antes los habían despojado. Yo, el Señor, lo afirmo.
Sepultura de Gog
11 »Por aquel tiempo daré a Gog un lugar en Israel, en el Valle de los Viajeros, frente al mar, para que lo sepulten. Ese lugar impedirá el paso, y allí enterrarán a Gog y a todo su ejército, y le pondrán el nombre de Valle del ejército de Gog. 12 Los israelitas necesitarán siete meses para enterrarlos y dejar limpio el país. 13 Toda la gente estará ocupada enterrándolos, y será un honor para ellos. En ese día yo me mostraré glorioso. Yo, el Señor, lo afirmo. 14 Además, después de esos siete meses, se encargará a un grupo de personas que recorran y exploren el país, y que entierren a los que hayan quedado en el suelo, para dejarlo limpio. 15 Cuando alguna de estas personas, al recorrer el país, vea algún hueso humano, pondrá a su lado una señal hasta que los enterradores lo entierren en el Valle del ejército de Gog. 16 (También hay una ciudad llamada El Ejército.) Así dejarán limpio el país.»
17 El Señor me dijo: «Di a todas las aves y a todas las fieras que se reúnan de los alrededores y vengan a las montañas de Israel, al sacrificio que allí voy a hacer para ellas. Podrán comer carne y beber sangre; 18 se comerán la carne de los soldados y beberán la sangre de los gobernantes de la tierra, como si fuera de carneros, corderos, chivos o gordos becerros de Basán. 19 De ese sacrificio que voy a hacer para ellas, comerán grasa hasta enfermar y beberán sangre hasta emborracharse. 20 Les prepararé un banquete con la carne de los caballos y de los jinetes, de los soldados y de toda clase de guerreros, para que coman hasta llenarse. Yo, el Señor, lo afirmo.
Restauración de Israel
21 »Así mostraré mi gloria a las naciones extranjeras. Todas las naciones verán cómo las he juzgado y castigado. 22 De ese día en adelante, Israel reconocerá que yo soy el Señor su Dios. 23 Y las naciones extranjeras sabrán que los israelitas fueron al destierro por causa de sus pecados, porque me fueron infieles; y que yo les volví la espalda y dejé que los enemigos los vencieran y los mataran a todos en la guerra. 24 Yo los traté como merecían su impureza y rebeldía, y les volví la espalda.
25 »Por eso yo, el Señor, digo: Ahora voy a tener misericordia de todo el pueblo de Israel, de los descendientes de Jacob. Voy a hacer que cambie su suerte, para exigir que se dé honor a mi santo nombre. 26-27 Yo los reuniré otra vez de las naciones extranjeras y de los países enemigos; entonces vivirán tranquilos en su propia tierra, sin que nadie los asuste. Así mostraré mi santidad, y muchas naciones podrán verla. Los israelitas soportarán su deshonra por haberme sido infieles. 28 Yo los envié al destierro entre naciones extranjeras, y yo los reuniré de nuevo en su tierra. No dejaré desterrado a ninguno. Entonces reconocerán que yo soy el Señor su Dios. 29 No volveré a darles la espalda, pues he derramado mi poder sobre el pueblo de Israel. Yo, el Señor, lo afirmo.»
Ezekiel 39
New King James Version
Gog’s Armies Destroyed
39 “And (A)you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, [a]the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal; 2 and I will (B)turn you around and lead you on, (C)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 (D)You shall [b]fall upon the mountains of Israel, you and all your troops and the peoples who are with you; (E)I will give you to birds of prey of every sort and to the beasts of the field to be devoured. 5 You shall [c]fall on [d]the open field; for I have spoken,” says the Lord God. 6 (F)“And I will send fire on Magog and on those who live [e]in security in (G)the coastlands. Then they shall know that I am the Lord. 7 (H)So I will make My holy name known in the midst of My people Israel, and I will not let them (I)profane My holy name anymore. (J)Then the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel. 8 (K)Surely it is coming, and it shall be done,” says the Lord God. “This is the day (L)of which I have spoken.
9 “Then those who dwell in the cities of Israel will go out and set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and bucklers, the bows and arrows, the [f]javelins and spears; and they will make fires with them for seven years. 10 They will not take wood from the field nor cut down any from the forests, because they will make fires with the weapons; (M)and they will plunder those who plundered them, and pillage those who pillaged them,” says the Lord God.
The Burial of Gog
11 “It will come to pass in that day that I will give Gog a burial place there in Israel, the valley of those who pass by east of the sea; and it will obstruct travelers, because there they will bury Gog and all his multitude. Therefore they will call it the Valley of [g]Hamon Gog. 12 For seven months the house of Israel will be burying them, (N)in order to cleanse the land. 13 Indeed all the people of the land will be burying, and they will gain (O)renown for it on the day that (P)I am glorified,” says the Lord God. 14 “They will set apart men regularly employed, with the help of [h]a search party, to pass through the land and bury those bodies remaining on the ground, in order (Q)to cleanse it. At the end of seven months they will make a search. 15 The search party will pass through the land; and when anyone sees a man’s bone, he shall [i]set up a marker by it, till the buriers have buried it in the Valley of Hamon Gog. 16 The name of the city will also be [j]Hamonah. Thus they shall (R)cleanse the land.” ’
A Triumphant Festival
17 “And as for you, son of man, thus says the Lord God, (S)‘Speak to every sort of bird and to every beast of the field:
(T)“Assemble yourselves and come;
Gather together from all sides to My (U)sacrificial meal
Which I am sacrificing for you,
A great sacrificial meal (V)on the mountains of Israel,
That you may eat flesh and drink blood.
18 (W)You shall eat the flesh of the mighty,
Drink the blood of the princes of the earth,
Of rams and lambs,
Of goats and bulls,
All of them (X)fatlings of Bashan.
19 You shall eat fat till you are full,
And drink blood till you are drunk,
At My sacrificial meal
Which I am sacrificing for you.
20 (Y)You shall be filled at My table
With horses and riders,
(Z)With mighty men
And with all the men of war,” says the Lord God.
Israel Restored to the Land
21 (AA)“I will set My glory among the nations; all the nations shall see My judgment which I have executed, and (AB)My hand which I have laid on them. 22 (AC)So the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God from that day forward. 23 (AD)The Gentiles shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity; because they were unfaithful to Me, therefore (AE)I hid My face from them. I (AF)gave them into the hand of their enemies, and they all fell by the sword. 24 (AG)According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions I have dealt with them, and hidden My face from them.” ’
25 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: (AH)‘Now I will bring back the captives of Jacob, and have mercy on the (AI)whole house of Israel; and I will be jealous for My holy name— 26 (AJ)after they have borne their shame, and all their unfaithfulness in which they were unfaithful to Me, when they (AK)dwelt safely in their own land and no one made them afraid. 27 (AL)When I have brought them back from the peoples and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and I (AM)am hallowed in them in the sight of many nations, 28 (AN)then they shall know that I am the Lord their God, who sent them into captivity among the nations, but also brought them back to their land, and left none of them [k]captive any longer. 29 (AO)And I will not hide My face from them anymore; for I shall have (AP)poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,’ says the Lord God.”

Ezekiel 39
English Standard Version
39 “And you, (A)son of man, (B)prophesy against (C)Gog and say, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, (D)I am against you, O Gog, (E)chief prince of (F)Meshech[a] and (G)Tubal. 2 (H)And I will turn you about and drive you forward,[b] and bring you up from (I)the uttermost parts of the north, and lead you against the (J)mountains of Israel. 3 Then (K)I will strike your bow from your left hand, and (L)will make your arrows drop out of your right hand. 4 (M)You shall fall on (N)the mountains of Israel, you and all your (O)hordes and the peoples who are with you. (P)I will give you to birds of prey of every sort and to the beasts of the field to be devoured. 5 You shall fall in the open field, for (Q)I have spoken, declares the Lord God. 6 (R)I will send fire on (S)Magog and on those (T)who dwell securely in (U)the coastlands, and (V)they shall know that I am the Lord.
7 “And (W)my holy name I will make known in the midst of my people Israel, and (X)I will not let my holy name be profaned anymore. And (Y)the nations shall know that I am (Z)the Lord, the Holy One in Israel. 8 (AA)Behold, it is coming and it will be brought about, declares the Lord God. That is the day (AB)of which I have spoken.
9 “Then those who dwell in the cities of Israel will go out and (AC)make fires of the weapons and burn them, shields and bucklers, bow and arrows, (AD)clubs[c] and spears; and they will make fires of them for seven years, 10 so that they will not need to take wood out of the field or cut down any out of the forests, for (AE)they will make their fires of the weapons. (AF)They will seize the spoil of those who despoiled them, and plunder those who plundered them, declares the Lord God.
11 “On that day I will give to (AG)Gog a place for burial in Israel, the Valley of the Travelers, east of the sea. It will block the travelers, for there Gog and all his multitude will be buried. It will be called the Valley of (AH)Hamon-gog.[d] 12 For (AI)seven months the house of Israel will be burying them, in order (AJ)to cleanse the land. 13 All the people of the land will bury them, and it will bring them renown on the day that (AK)I show my glory, declares the Lord God. 14 They will set apart men to travel through the land regularly and bury those travelers remaining on the face of the land, so as (AL)to cleanse it. At[e] the end of (AM)seven months they will make their search. 15 And when these travel through the land and anyone sees a human bone, then he shall set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the Valley of (AN)Hamon-gog. 16 (Hamonah[f] is also the name of the city.) Thus shall they cleanse the land.
17 “As for you, (AO)son of man, thus says the Lord God: (AP)Speak to (AQ)the birds of every sort and to (AR)all beasts of the field: ‘Assemble and come, gather from all around to (AS)the sacrificial feast that I am preparing for you, a great sacrificial feast on the mountains of Israel, and you shall eat flesh and drink blood. 18 (AT)You shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth—of rams, of lambs, and of he-goats, of bulls, all of them (AU)fat beasts of Bashan. 19 And you shall eat fat till you are filled, and drink blood till you are drunk, at the sacrificial feast that I am preparing for you. 20 And you shall be filled at my table with horses and charioteers, with mighty men and all kinds of warriors,’ declares the Lord God.
21 “And (AV)I will set my glory among the nations, and all the nations shall see (AW)my judgment that I have executed, and (AX)my hand that I have laid on them. 22 (AY)The house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God, from that day forward. 23 And (AZ)the nations shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity, because they dealt so treacherously with me that (BA)I hid my face from them and (BB)gave them into the hand of their adversaries, and they all fell by the sword. 24 I dealt with them (BC)according to their uncleanness and their transgressions, and hid my face from them.
The Lord Will Restore Israel
25 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: Now (BD)I will restore the fortunes of Jacob and have mercy on (BE)the whole house of Israel, and (BF)I will be jealous for my holy name. 26 They shall (BG)forget their shame and all the treachery they have practiced against me, when (BH)they dwell securely in their land with (BI)none to make them afraid, 27 (BJ)when I have brought them back from the peoples and gathered them from their enemies' lands, (BK)and through them have vindicated my holiness in the sight of many nations. 28 (BL)Then they shall know that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them into exile among the nations and then assembled them into their own land. I will leave none of them remaining among the nations anymore. 29 (BM)And I will not hide my face anymore from them, when (BN)I pour out my Spirit upon the house of Israel, declares the Lord God.”
