1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
1 Y FUÉ á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
2 “Son of man, set your face against Gog, the land of Magog, the prince of the head of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy about him.
2 Hijo del hombre, pon tu rostro contra Gog en tierra de Magog, príncipe de la cabecera de Mesech y Tubal, y profetiza sobre él,
3 And you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, prince of the head of Meshech and Tubal.
3 Y di: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí, yo á ti, oh Gog, príncipe de la cabecera de Mesech y Tubal.
4 And I will turn you around, and I will place a bit in your jaws. And I will lead you away, with all your army, the horses and the horsemen all clothed in armor, a great multitude, equipped with spears and light shields and swords,
4 Y yo te quebrantaré, y pondré anzuelos en tus quijadas, y te sacaré á ti, y á todo tu ejército, caballos y caballeros, vestidos de todo todos ellos, grande multitud con paveses y escudos, teniendo todos ellos espadas:
5 the Persians, the Ethiopians, and the Libyans with them, all with heavy shields and helmets,
5 Persia, y Etiopía, y Libia con ellos; todos ellos con escudos y almetes:
6 Gomer, and all his companies, the house of Togarmah, the northern parts, and all his strength, and the many peoples with you.
6 Gomer, y todas sus compañías; la casa de Togarma, á los lados del norte, y todas sus compañías; pueblos muchos contigo.
7 Prepare and equip yourself, with all your multitude which has been assembled to you. And you shall be like a commandment to them.
7 Aparéjate, y apercíbete, tú, y toda tu multitud que se ha reunido á ti, y séles por guarda.
8 After many days, you will be visited. At the end of the years, you will arrive at the land which was turned back by the sword, and which has been gathered from many peoples to the mountains of Israel that have been continually abandoned. These ones have been led away from the peoples, and all of them will be living confidently within it.
8 De aquí á muchos días serás tú visitado: al cabo de años vendrás á la tierra salvada de la espada, recogida de muchos pueblos, á los montes de Israel, que siempre fueron para asolamiento: mas fué sacada de las naciones, y todos ellos morarán confiadamente.
9 But you will ascend and arrive like a tempest and like a cloud, so that you may cover the land, you and all your companies, and the many peoples with you.
9 Y subirás tú, vendrás como tempestad; como nublado para cubrir la tierra serás tú, y todas tus compañías, y muchos pueblos contigo.
10 Thus says the Lord God: In that day, words will climb into your heart, and you will invent a most wicked plan.
10 Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Y será en aquel día, que subirán palabras en tu corazón, y concebirás mal pensamiento;
11 And you will say: ‘I will ascend to the land without a wall. I will go to those who are resting and dwelling securely. All these live without a wall; they have no bars or gates.’
11 Y dirás: Subiré contra tierra de aldeas, iré á [gentes] reposadas, y que habitan confiadamente: todos ellos habitan sin muros, no tienen cerrojos ni puertas:
12 Thus, you will plunder spoils, and you will take possession of prey, so that you may lay your hand upon those who had been abandoned, and afterwards were restored, and upon a people who were gathered away from the Gentiles, a people who have begun to possess, and to be the inhabitants of, the navel of the earth.
12 Para arrebatar despojos y para tomar presa; para tornar tu mano sobre las [tierras] desiertas [ya] pobladas, y sobre el pueblo recogido de las gentes, que se hace de ganados y posesiones, que mora en el ombligo de la tierra.
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, and all its lions will say to you: ‘Could you have arrived in order to purchase from the spoils? Behold, you have gathered your multitude in order to plunder a prey, so that you may take silver and gold, and carry away equipment and substance, and plunder immeasurable wealth.’
13 Seba, y Dedán, y los mercaderes de Tarsis, y todos sus leoncillos, te dirán: ¿Has venido á arrebatar despojos? ¿has reunido tu multitud para tomar presa, para quitar plata y oro, para tomar ganados y posesiones, para tomar grandes despojos?
14 Because of this, son of man, prophesy, and you shall say to Gog: Thus says the Lord God: How is it that you do not know of that day, when my people, Israel, will be living in confidence?
14 Por tanto profetiza, hijo del hombre, y di á Gog: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: En aquel tiempo, cuando mi pueblo Israel habitará seguramente, ¿no lo sabrás tú?
15 And you will advance from your place, from the parts of the north, you and the many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great assembly and an immense army.
15 Y vendrás de tu lugar, de las partes del norte, tú y muchos pueblos contigo, todos ellos á caballo, grande reunión y poderoso ejército:
16 And you will rise up over my people, Israel, like a cloud, so that you may cover the earth. In the latter days, you will be. And I will lead you over my own land, so that the Gentiles may know me, when I will have been sanctified in you, O Gog, before their eyes.
16 Y subirás contra mi pueblo Israel como nublado para cubrir la tierra; será al cabo de los días: y te traeré sobre mi tierra, para que las gentes me conozcan, cuando fuere santificado en ti, oh Gog, delante de sus ojos.
17 Thus says the Lord God: Therefore, you are the one, about whom I spoke in the days of antiquity, by the hand of my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in the days of those times that I would lead you over them.
17 Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: ¿No eres tú aquél de quien hablé yo en tiempos pasados por mis siervos los profetas de Israel, los cuales profetizaron en aquellos tiempos que yo te había de traer sobre ellos?
18 And this shall be in that day, in the day of the advent of Gog over the land of Israel, says the Lord God: my indignation will rise up in my fury.
18 Y será en aquel tiempo, cuando vendrá Gog contra la tierra de Israel, dijo el Señor Jehová, que subirá mi ira en mi enojo.
19 And I have spoken, in my zeal and in the fire of my wrath, that there shall be a great commotion over the land of Israel, in that day.
19 Porque he hablado en mi celo, y en el fuego de mi ira: Que en aquel tiempo habrá gran temblor sobre la tierra de Israel;
20 And before my face there shall be stirred up: the fish of the sea, and the flying things of the air, and the beasts of the field, and every crawling thing that moves across the soil, and all the men who are upon the face of the earth. And the mountains will be overturned, and the hedges will fall, and every wall will fall in ruin to the ground.
20 Que los peces de la mar, y las aves del cielo, y las bestias del campo, y toda serpiente que anda arrastrando sobre la tierra, y todos los hombres que están sobre la haz de la tierra, temblarán á mi presencia; y se arruinarán los montes, y los vallados caerán, y todo muro caerá á tierra.
21 And I will call for the sword against him on all my mountains, says the Lord God. Each one’s sword will be directed toward his brother.
21 Y en todos mis montes llamaré contra él espada, dice el Señor Jehová: la espada de cada cual será contra su hermano.
22 And I will judge him by pestilence, and blood, and violent rainstorms, and immense hailstones. I will rain fire and brimstone upon him, and upon his army, and upon the many peoples who are with him.
22 Y yo litigaré con él con pestilencia y con sangre; y haré llover sobre él, y sobre sus compañías, y sobre los muchos pueblos que están con él, impetuosa lluvia, y piedras de granizo, fuego y azufre.
23 And I will be magnified and sanctified. And I will be known in the eyes of the many nations. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
23 Y seré engrandecido y santificado, y seré conocido en ojos de muchas gentes; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.
