Ezekiel 39

Ezekiel 39:2

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:

I will so consume thee, that only the sixth part of thy forces shall be left alive; and I will, in my just judgment, fetch thee from the borders of the north, to fall upon my Church, in great fury and malice.

Ezekiel 39:3

And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.

I will make void, and frustrate all the attempts and endeavours, which thou shalt use against my people; and disappoint all thy warlike preparations.

Ezekiel 39:6

And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles.

I will send my fierce judgments upon the enemy of my Church; and upon those, that, being separated and guarded by the sea, live securely confident of their own safety.

Ezekiel 39:9

The bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years.

Such store of these military weapons shall be taken from their enemies, as that those bows, and arrows, and staves, and spears shall yield them firewood for many years.

Ezekiel 39:11

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 Hamon-Gog.

I will cause these cruel and hostile nations, to leave their carcasses in great abundance behind them, in the land of Israel; and there they shall be cast into pits and valleys, near to the common road; so as all passengers shall stop their noses, by reason of the noisome scent of the dead bodies; and the valley shall bear the name, for ever after, of this frequent sepulture of the nations.

Ezekiel 39:12

And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.

And so great shall be the multitude of the slain, as that my people of Israel, by whose hand this slaughter shall be done, shall bestow many months in burying them; not so much out of respect to their dead enemies, as for their own sakes, that their land may be cleansed from the impurity and annoyance of those carcasses. So verse 13, and 14.

Ezekiel 39:15

And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a figure by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamon-Gog.

And the passengers, that pass through the land, when any of them seeth a man’s bone, then shall they lay a heap of stones upon it, to give notice to the buriers, that they fetch all those scattered bones to the common burying place of Hamon-Gog.

Ezekiel 39:16

And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.

And there shall be a city erected near to this common burial place; and ye shall give it a name of multitude, because of the innumerable company of those bodies, which shall lie there interred.

Ezekiel 39:29

For I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord God.

I have plentifully stored my Church with graces of sanctification, saith the Lord God.
