And dwellers shall go out of the cities of Israel, and they shall set afire, and shall burn armours, shield and spear, bow and arrows, and staves of hand, and shafts without iron; and they shall burn those in fire by seven years. (And the inhabitants shall go out of the cities of Israel, and they shall set on fire, and shall burn the arms, or the weapons, yea, shield and spear, bow and arrows, and hand-staffs, and shafts without iron; and they shall have enough weapons to burn for seven years.)

10 And they shall not bear trees of countries, neither shall cut down of [the] forests, for they shall burn armours by fire; and they shall take preys of them, to whom they were preys, and they shall ravish their wasters, saith the Lord God. (And so they shall not need to carry wood out of the countryside, nor shall they need to cut it down from the forests, for they shall burn all the arms, or all the weapons, in the fire; and they shall take preys of them, to whom they were preys, and they shall rob, or waste, their wasters, saith the Lord God.)

11 And it shall be in that day, I shall give to Gog a named place, a sepulchre in Israel, the valley of waygoers at the east of the sea, that shall make them that pass forth for to wonder; and they shall bury there Gog, and all the multitude of him, and it shall be called The valley of the multitude of Gog. (And it shall be on that day, I shall give to Gog a place for a tomb, or for a grave, there in Israel, yea, the Valley of the Waygoers to the east of the Dead Sea, that shall make them who pass forth to wonder; and they shall bury Gog, and all his multitude there, and it shall be called The Valley of Hamongog.)

12 And the house of Israel shall bury them, that they cleanse the land in seven months. (And it shall take the house of Israel seven months to bury them, yea, that long to cleanse the land.)

13 Forsooth all the people of the land shall bury them, and it shall be a named day to them, in which I am glorified, saith the Lord God. (And all the people of the land shall bury them; and the day on which I am glorified, shall be a day of renown for them, saith the Lord God.)

14 And they shall ordain busily men compassing the land, that shall bury and seek them that were left on the face of the land, that they cleanse it. Forsooth after seven months they shall begin to seek, (And they shall ordain men to busily go about the land, to seek out and bury those who were left on the face of the land, so that they may altogether cleanse it. And they shall begin to seek them out after seven months,)

15 and they shall compass going about the land; and when they shall see the bone of a man, they shall set a title, or a notable sign, beside it, till the buriers of carrions bury it in the valley of the multitude of Gog. (and going about they shall go all around the land; and when they shall see a person’s bone, they shall set a title, or a notable sign, beside it, until the buriers of the dead bodies can bury it in the Valley of Hamongog.)

16 Soothly the name of the city (nearby) is Hamonah; and (so) they shall cleanse the land.
