Ezekiel 38:5-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 38
5Persia, Cush, and Put with them, all of them with buckler and helmet; 6Gomer with all its troops; Beth-togarmah from the remote parts of the north with all its troops—many peoples with you.
7Be ready, and be prepared, you and all your contingents that are assembled around you, and be a guard for them.
8After many days you will be summoned; in the latter years you will come into the land that is restored from the sword, whose inhabitants have been gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel which had been a continual place of ruins; but its people were brought out from the nations, and they are living securely, all of them.
9And you will go up, you will come like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your troops, and many peoples with you.'
King James Version
Chapter 38
5Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet: 6Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.
7Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 38
5Persia, Cush, and Put are with them, all of them with shields and helmets; 6Gomer with all its troops; and Beth-togarmah from the remotest parts of the north along with all its troops—many peoples are with you.
7"‘Be prepared and get yourself ready, you and your whole assembly that has been mobilized around you; you will be their guard.
8After a long time you will be summoned. In the last years you will enter a land that has been restored from war and regathered from many peoples to the mountains of Israel, which had long been a ruin. They were brought out from the peoples, and all of them now live securely.
9You, all of your troops, and many peoples with you will advance, coming like a thunderstorm; you will be like a cloud covering the land.
New Living Translation
Chapter 38
5Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya will join you, too, with all their weapons. 6Gomer and all its armies will also join you, along with the armies of Beth-togarmah from the distant north, and many others.
7Get ready; be prepared! Keep all the armies around you mobilized, and take command of them.
8A long time from now you will be called into action. In the distant future you will swoop down on the land of Israel, which will be enjoying peace after recovering from war and after its people have returned from many lands to the mountains of Israel.
9You and all your allies — a vast and awesome army — will roll down on them like a storm and cover the land like a cloud.
English Standard Version
Chapter 38
5Persia, Cush, and Put are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; 6Gomer and all his hordes; Beth-togarmah from the uttermost parts of the north with all his hordes — many peoples are with you.
7"Be ready and keep ready, you and all your hosts that are assembled about you, and be a guard for them.
8After many days you will be mustered. In the latter years you will go against the land that is restored from war, the land whose people were gathered from many peoples upon the mountains of Israel, which had been a continual waste. Its people were brought out from the peoples and now dwell securely, all of them.
9You will advance, coming on like a storm. You will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your hordes, and many peoples with you.
New International Version
Chapter 38
5Persia, Cush and Put will be with them, all with shields and helmets, 6also Gomer with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troops—the many nations with you.
7" ‘Get ready; be prepared, you and all the hordes gathered about you, and take command of them.
8After many days you will be called to arms. In future years you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and now all of them live in safety.
9You and all your troops and the many nations with you will go up, advancing like a storm; you will be like a cloud covering the land.

9You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”
