And he made me go past them round about: and I saw that there was a very great number of them on the face of the wide valley, and they were very dry.

And again he said to me, Be a prophet to these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, give ear to the word of the Lord.

And I will put muscles on you and make flesh come on you, and put skin over you, and breath into you, so that you may have life and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

And looking I saw that there were muscles on them and flesh came up, and they were covered with skin: but there was no breath in them.

And I gave the word at his orders, and breath came into them, and they came to life and got up on their feet, a very great army.

For this cause be a prophet to them, and say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am opening the resting-places of your dead, and I will make you come up out of your resting-places, O my people and I will take you into the land of Israel.

And I will put my spirit in you, so that you may come to life, and I will give you a rest in your land: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it and have done it, says the Lord.

And you, son of man, take one stick, writing on it, For Judah and for the children of Israel who are in his company: then take another stick, writing on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel who are in his company:

And when the children of your people say to you, Will you not make clear to us what these things have to do with us?

And the sticks with your writing on them will be in your hand before their eyes.

And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel and one king will be king over them all: and they will no longer be two nations, and will no longer be parted into two kingdoms:

And my servant David will be king over them and they will all have one keeper: and they will be guided by my orders and will keep my rules and do them.

And I will make an agreement of peace with them: it will be an eternal agreement with them: and I will have mercy on them and make their numbers great, and will put my holy place among them for ever.

And the nations will be certain that I who make Israel holy am the Lord, when my holy place is among them for ever.

Son of man, let your face be turned against Gog, of the land of Magog, the ruler of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and be a prophet against him,

And turning you round, I will put hooks in your mouth and make you come out with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them in full war-dress, a great force with breastplate and body-cover, all of them armed with swords:

Gomer and all her forces the people of Togarmah in the inmost parts of the north, with all his forces: a great number of peoples with you.

After a long time you will get your orders: in the last years you will come into the land which has been given back from the sword, which has been got together out of a great number of peoples, on the mountains of Israel which have ever been a waste: but it has been taken out from the peoples and they will be living, all of them, without fear of danger.

This is what the Lord has said: In that day it will come about that things will come into your mind, and you will have thoughts of an evil design:

To take their property by force and go off with their goods turning your hand against the waste places which now are peopled, and against the people who have been got together out of the nations, who have got cattle and goods for themselves, who are living in the middle of the earth.

For this cause, son of man, be a prophet and say to Gog, These are the words of the Lord: In that day, when my people Israel are living without fear of danger, will you not be moved against them?

And you will come up against my people Israel, like a cloud covering the land and it will come about, in the last days, that I will make you come against my land, so that the nations may have knowledge of me when I make myself holy in you, O Gog, before their eyes.

And it will come about in that day, when Gog comes up against the land of Israel, says the Lord, that my wrath will come up, and my passion and my bitter feeling.

So that the fish of the sea and the birds of heaven and the beasts of the field and everything moving on the earth, and all the men who are on the face of the earth, will be shaking before me, and the mountains will be overturned and the high places will come down, and every wall will come falling down to the earth.

And I will take up my cause against him with disease and with blood and I will send down on him and on his forces and on the peoples who are with him, an overflowing shower and great ice-drops, fire, and burning.

Straight away I was in the Spirit: and I saw a high seat in heaven, and one was seated on it

And round about the high seat were four and twenty seats: and on them I saw four and twenty rulers seated, clothed in white robes and on their heads crowns of gold.

And before the high seat there was, as it seemed, a clear sea of glass and in the middle of the high seat, and round about it, four beasts full of eyes round about.

And the four beasts, having every one of them six wings, are full of eyes round about and inside: and without resting day and night, they say, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God, Ruler of all, who was and is and is to come.

The four and twenty rulers go down on their faces before him who is seated on the high seat, and give worship to him who is living for ever and ever, and take off their crowns before the high seat, saying,
