6 There will also be Gomer with all its troops. And there will be the nation of Togarmah from the far north. It will have all its troops. There will be many other nations with you.
7 “‘Be prepared. Be prepared, you and all the armies that have come together to make you their commander.
8 After many days you will be called for service. After many years you will come into a land that has been rebuilt from war. The people in the land will be gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel. Those mountains were empty for a long time. These people were brought out from the nations. They will all be living in safety.
9 And you will go up like a storm. You will be like a cloud covering the land. It will be you, all your troops and many nations with you.
10 “‘This is what the Lord God says: At that time ideas will come into your mind. You will think up an evil plan.
11 You will say, “I will march against a land of towns without walls. I will attack those who are at rest and live in safety. All of them live without city walls. They have no gate bars or gates.
12 I will capture valuable things and take good things. I will turn my power against the rebuilt ruins that now have people living in them. I will go against these people who have been gathered from the nations. They have become rich with farm animals and property. They live at the center of the world.”
