9 You will ascend, coming like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land—you and all your troops and the many peoples with you.
10 This is what the Lord GOD says: On that day, thoughts will arise in your heart, and you will devise an evil plan.
11 You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will attack peaceful people who live securely—all of them living without walls, without gates and bars.’
12 You will come to seize spoil and carry off plunder, to turn your hand against resettled ruins and against a people gathered from the nations, people acquiring livestock and goods, who live at the center of the land.
13 Sheba, Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish with all their young lions will say to you: ‘Have you come to seize spoil? Have you gathered your hordes to carry off silver and gold, to take away livestock and possessions, to make off with great plunder?’
14 Therefore, prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog: ‘This is what the Lord GOD says: On that day when my people Israel are living securely, will you not be aware of it?
15 You will come from your place out of the far north—you and many peoples with you, all riding on horses, a great assembly and a mighty army.
16 You will advance against my people Israel like a cloud covering the land. In the latter days I will bring you against my land so that the nations may know me, as I show myself holy through you before their eyes, O Gog.
17 This is what the Lord GOD says: Are you the one I spoke of in former days through my servants the prophets of Israel? At that time, they prophesied for years that I would bring you against them.
18 On that day, when Gog comes against the land of Israel, declares the Lord GOD, my fury will rise up in my face.
19 In my zeal and fiery wrath I declare: On that day, there will be a great earthquake in the land of Israel.
