Ezekiel 39
1 Therefore, thou
son of
man, prophesy against
Gog, and
say, Thus
saith the
Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O
Gog, the
chief prince of
Meshech and
Tubal: 2 And I will turn thee
back, and leave but the sixth
part of thee, and will cause thee to come
up from the
north parts, and will
bring thee upon the
mountains of
Israel: 3 And I will
smite thy
bow out of thy
left hand, and will cause thine
arrows to
fall out of thy
right hand. 4 Thou shalt
fall upon the
mountains of
Israel, thou, and all thy
bands, and the
people that is with thee: I will
give thee unto the
ravenous birds of every
sort, and to the
beasts of the
field to be
devoured. 5 Thou shalt
fall upon the
open field: for I have
spoken it,
saith the
Lord GOD. 6 And I will
send a
fire on
Magog, and among them that
dwell carelessly in the
isles: and they shall
know that I am the
LORD. 7 So will I make my
holy name known in the
midst of my
people Israel; and I will not let them
pollute my
holy name any more: and the
heathen shall
know that I am the
LORD, the Holy
One in
Israel. 8 Behold, it is
come, and it is
done,
saith the
Lord GOD; this is the
day whereof I have
spoken.
9 And they that
dwell in the
cities of
Israel shall go
forth, and shall
set on
fire and
burn the
weapons, both the
shields and the
bucklers, the
bows and the
arrows, and the
handstaves, and the
spears, and they shall
burn them with
fire seven years: 10 So that they shall
take no
wood out of the
field, neither cut
down any out of the
forests; for they shall
burn the
weapons with
fire: and they shall
spoil those that
spoiled them, and
rob those that
robbed them,
saith the
Lord GOD. 11 And it shall come to pass in that
day, that I will
give unto
Gog a
place there of
graves in
Israel, the
valley of the
passengers on the
east of the
sea: and it shall
stop the noses of the
passengers: and there shall they
bury Gog and all his
multitude: and they shall
call it The
valley of
Hamongog. 12 And
seven months shall the
house of
Israel be
burying of them, that they may
cleanse the
land. 13 Yea, all the
people of the
land shall
bury them; and it shall be to them a
renown the
day that I shall be
glorified,
saith the
Lord GOD. 14 And they shall sever
out men of continual
employment, passing
through the
land to
bury with the
passengers those that
remain upon the
face of the
earth, to
cleanse it: after the
end of
seven months shall they
search.
15 And the
passengers that pass
through the
land, when any
seeth a
man's bone, then shall he set
up a
sign by it, till the
buriers have
buried it in the
valley of
Hamongog. 16 And also the
name of the
city shall be
Hamonah. Thus shall they
cleanse the
land. 17 And, thou
son of
man, thus
saith the
Lord GOD; Speak unto every
feathered fowl, and to every
beast of the
field, Assemble yourselves, and
come;
gather yourselves on every
side to my
sacrifice that I do
sacrifice for you, even a
great sacrifice upon the
mountains of
Israel, that ye may
eat flesh, and
drink blood. 18 Ye shall
eat the
flesh of the
mighty, and
drink the
blood of the
princes of the
earth, of
rams, of
lambs, and of
goats, of
bullocks, all of them
fatlings of
Bashan. 19 And ye shall
eat fat till ye be
full, and
drink blood till ye be
drunken, of my
sacrifice which I have
sacrificed for you.
20 Thus ye shall be
filled at my
table with
horses and
chariots, with mighty
men, and with all
men of
war, saith the
Lord GOD. 21 And I will
set my
glory among the
heathen, and all the
heathen shall
see my
judgment that I have
executed, and my
hand that I have
laid upon them.
22 So the
house of
Israel shall
know that I am the
LORD their
God from that
day and
forward. 23 And the
heathen shall
know that the
house of
Israel went into
captivity for their
iniquity: because they
trespassed against me, therefore
hid I my
face from them, and
gave them into the
hand of their
enemies: so
fell they all by the
sword. 24 According to their
uncleanness and according to their
transgressions have I
done unto them, and
hid my
face from them.
25 Therefore thus
saith the
Lord GOD; Now will I bring
again the
captivity of
Jacob, and have
mercy upon the whole
house of
Israel, and will be
jealous for my
holy name; 26 After that they have
borne their
shame, and all their
trespasses whereby they have
trespassed against me, when they
dwelt safely in their
land, and none made them
afraid.
27 When I have brought them
again from the
people, and
gathered them out of their
enemies '
lands, and am
sanctified in them in the
sight of
many nations; 28 Then shall they
know that I am the
LORD their
God, which caused them to be led into
captivity among the
heathen: but I have
gathered them unto their own
land, and have
left none of them any more there.
29 Neither will I
hide my
face any more from them: for I have poured
out my
spirit upon the
house of
Israel, saith the
Lord GOD.
