Ezekiel 38:17-39:6

The Voice

Eternal One: Are you not the one I was talking about all those years ago through My servants, the prophets of Israel? For years, they prophesied that I would summon you to march against them. ¹⁸ On the day the prophecy is fulfilled, when Gog comes against the land of Israel, most certainly My wrath will come like a fire. ¹⁹ My jealousy and burning anger guarantee that all of Israel will quake on that day! ²⁰ Creatures of the sky, earth, and sea—all people and beasts—will shake with awe in My presence. The mountains will be knocked down! Great cliffs and every fortress will crumble to the ground. ²¹ I will summon the sword against Gog upon all of My hills and mountains. Confusion will abound; Gog’s soldiers will turn and fight each other. ²² I will come down and render My judgment in person. Disease and massacre will be their sentence. I will command heaven to throw everything it has upon Gog and all his armies, pouring down rain, hail, lightning, and burning sulfur. ²³ They will see just how great and holy I really am. I will make Myself known to the nations of the world. Then they will all know that I am the Eternal One.

39 Eternal One: Son of man, prophesy against Gog, and tell him that this is what the Eternal Lord has to say: “I oppose you, Gog, highest ruler of Meshech and Tubal. ² I will turn you around and lead you. I will bring you from the remote regions of the north and send you up against Israel’s mountains. ³ But just when you think you’ve had success, I will knock the bow out of your left hand and the arrows out of your right hand. ⁴ Right then and there, on the mountains of Israel, you will meet your end—you and all your troops and everyone in your coalition. I will feed your remains to the predatory birds and wild beasts and deny you an honorable burial. ⁵ You will fall and be defeated out in the open fields.” I, the Eternal Lord, have spoken. ⁶ I will pour fire on Magog and on the heads of all those who believe themselves to be living safely on the coastlands. Then they will know that I am the Eternal One.
