A third of your people will die in the city from disease and famine. A third of them will be slaughtered by the enemy outside the city walls. And I will scatter a third to the winds, chasing them with my sword.

I will tear off the magic veils and save my people from your grasp. They will no longer be your victims. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

Because of all this, you will no longer talk of seeing visions that you never saw, nor will you make predictions. For I will rescue my people from your grasp. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”

“Son of man, give the people of Israel this message: In the day of my indignation, you will be like a polluted land, a land without rain.

and I was told to give this message to the people of Israel. This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will defile my Temple, the source of your security and pride, the place your heart delights in. Your sons and daughters whom you left behind in Judah will be slaughtered by the sword.

“And as for you, my flock, this is what the Sovereign Lord says to his people: I will judge between one animal of the flock and another, separating the sheep from the goats.

I will cause my people to walk on you once again, and you will be their territory. You will never again rob them of their children.

“And you will live in Israel, the land I gave your ancestors long ago. You will be my people, and I will be your God.

and you will attack my people Israel, covering their land like a cloud. At that time in the distant future, I will bring you against my land as everyone watches, and my holiness will be displayed by what happens to you, Gog. Then all the nations will know that I am the Lord.
