8 Post dies multos evocaberis;in novissimo annorum venies ad terram, quae reversa est a gladio, congregata estde populis multis ad montes Israel, qui fuerunt deserti iugiter: haec de populiseducta est, et habitant in ea confidenter universi.	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.

13 Saba et Dedan et negotiatores Tharsis et omnes principes eius dicent tibi:“Numquid ad sumenda spolia tu venis? Numquid ad diripiendam praedamcongregasti multitudinem tuam, ut tollas argentum et aurum, auferas pecora atquesubstantiam et diripias manubias infinitas?”.	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.’

In novissimisdiebus erit, et adducam te super terram meam, ut sciant gentes me, cumsanctificatus fuero in te in oculis eorum, o Gog.	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.
17 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Tu ergo ille es, de quo locutus sum in diebusantiquis in manu servorum meorum prophetarum Israel, qui prophetaverunt indiebus illis per annos, ut adducerem te super eos.	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.

20 et commovebuntur a facie mea piscesmaris et volucres caeli et bestiae agri et omne reptile, quod movetur superhumum, cunctique homines, qui sunt super faciem terrae; et subvertentur montes,et cadent rupes, et omnis murus in terram corruet.	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.
21 Et convocabo adversus eumin cunctis montibus meis gladium, ait Dominus Deus; gladius uniuscuiusque infratrem suum dirigetur.	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.
22 Et iudicabo eum peste et sanguine et imbre vehementiet lapidibus grandinis; ignem et sulphur pluam super eum et super exercitum eiuset super populos multos, qui sunt cum eo,	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.
23 et magnificabor et sanctificabor etnotus ero in oculis multarum gentium, et scient quia ego Dominus.	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.”
