Ezekiel 39:5-14 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

5. You will fall upon the face of the field. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.

6. And I will send a fire upon Magog, and upon those who are living confidently in the islands. And they shall know that I am the Lord.

7. And I will make known my holy name in the midst of my people, Israel, and my holy name will no longer be defiled. And the Gentiles shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.

8. Behold, it approaches, and it is done, says the Lord God. This is the day, about which I have spoken.

9. And the inhabitants from the cities of Israel will go forth, and they will kindle and burn the weapons, the shields and the spears, the bows and the arrows, and the staff and the lance. And they will kindle fires with them for seven years.

10. And they will not carry wood from the countryside, and they will not cut from the forests. For they will kindle the weapons with fire. And they will prey upon those who had preyed upon them, and they will plunder those who had plundered them, says the Lord God.

11. And this shall be in that day: I will give Gog a renown place as a sepulcher in Israel, the valley of the wayfarers to the east of the sea, which will cause astonishment in those who pass by. And in that place, they will bury Gog and all his multitude, and it will be called the valley of the multitude of Gog.

12. And the house of Israel will bury them, so that they may cleanse the land, for seven months

13. Then all the people of the earth will bury them, and this shall be for them a renown day, on which I have been glorified, says the Lord God.

14. And they shall appoint men to continually examine the earth, so that they may seek out and bury those who have remained on the surface of the earth, so that they may cleanse it. Then, after seven months, they will begin to seek.
