Chap. XXXVIII. Gog and Magog most tyrannically persecuting the Church, 17. as other prophetes haue also foretold, 20. shal be mightyly ouerthrowne.

1   And the word of our Lord was made to me, saying:

2   Sonne of man, set thy face09Q0314 against note Gog, & the Land of note Magog, the prince of the head of Mosoch, and Thubal: and prophecie of him and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith our Lord God: Behold I to thee Gog prince of the head of Mosoch and Thubal.

3   And I wil turne thee about, and wil

put a bitte in thy iawes: and wil bring forth thee, and al thyne armie, the horses and horsmen clothed with brigantines,

4   a great multitude, of them that take speare and buckler and sword.

5   The Persians, Æthiopians, and Lybians with them, al with shildes and helmets.

6   Gomer, and al her troupes, the houses of Thogorma the sides of the North, & al his strength, and manie peoples with them.

7   Prepare and make readie thy selfe, and al thy multitude, that is gathered to thee in heapes: and be thou as a precept to them.

8   After manie dayes thou shalt be visited: in the later end of yeares thou shalt come to the land, that is returned from the sword, and is gathered together out of manie peoples, to the mountaines of Israel, that were desert continually: this same is brought forth out of the peoples, and they shal al dwel in it confidently.

9   And going vp as a tempest thou shalt come, and as it were a clowde that thou maist couer the land, thou & thy troupes, and manie peoples with thee.

10   Thus sayth our Lord God: In that day shal wordes ascend vpon thy hart, & thou shalt thinke a most wicked thought.

11   And shalt say: I wil goe vp to the land without wal: I wil come to them that rest, and dwel securely: al these dwel without wal, there are no barres nor gates to them:

12   That thou mayst take the spoiles, and inuade the praye, that thou maist lay thy hand vpon them, that note had bene desert, and afterward restored, and vpon the people that is gathered together out of the Gentils, which hath begune to possesse, and to be inhabitant of the nauel of the earth.

13   Saba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tharsis, and al the lions therof shal say to thee: What comest thou to take spoiles? behold thou hast gathered thy multitude to take the praye, that thou maist take siluer, and gold, and maist take away stuffe and substance, & spoile infinite booties.

14   Therfore prophecie thou sonne of man, and thou shalt say to Gog: Thus saith our Lord God: Why shalt thou not know in that day, when my people of Israel shal dwel confidently?

15   And thou shalt come out of thy place from the sides of the North, thou and manie peoples with thee, al riders of horses, a great companie, and a vehement armie.

16   And thou shalt ascend vpon my people of Israel as a clowde, that thou couer the earth. noteIn the later dayes shalt thou be, and I wil bring thee vpon my land: that the Gentils may know me, when I shal be sanctified in thee before their eyes ô Gog.

17   Thus sayth our Lord God: Thou

-- --

then art he, of whom I spake in the dayes of old, in the hand of my seruants the prophets of Israel, which prophecied in the dayes of those times, that I would bring in thee vpon them.

18   And it shal be in that day, of the coming of Gog vpon the land of Israel, saith our Lord God, myne indignation shal ascend in my furie.

19   And in my zele, and in the fire of my wrath I haue spoken: That in that day shal be a great commotion vpon the land of Israel:

20   and at my presence shal the fishes of the sea be moued, and the foules of heauen, and the beastes of the fild, and euerie creeping thing, that moueth vpon the ground & al men that are vpon the face of the earth: and the mountaines shal be ouerthrowen, and the hedges shal fal, and euerie wal shal fal on the ground.

21   And I wil cal in against him note in al my mo&ubar;taines the sword, saith our Lord God: euerie mans sword shal be directed against his brother.

22   And I wil iudge him with pestilence, and bloud, and vehement showre, & mightie great stones: fire, and brimstone wil I raine vpon him, and vpon his armie, and vpon the manie peoples that are with him.

23   And I wil be magnified, and I wil be sanctified: and I wil be knowen in the eyes of manie nations: and they shal know that I am the Lord.
