Ezekiel 38:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 Be ready, and prepare yourselves,[a] you and all of your assembly,[b] the assembling[c] around you, and you must be[d] for them as a guard. 8 After many days you will be mustered; in the last years[e] you will come to a restored land from the sword, gathered from many peoples on the mountains of Israel which were as permanent ruins[f] but from peoples it was brought out, and they will dwell in safety,[g] all of them. 9 And you will advance like a storm; you will come, and you will be like a cloud covering[h] the land, and all of your troops and many nations along with you.”
