1

As haink goo yn Chiarn hym's, gra,

And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

2

Vac y dooinney, soie dty eddin noi Gog, thalloo Vagog, ard-phrince Veshech as Tubal, as jean phadeyrys n'oï,

Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,

3

As abbyr, Myr shoh ta'n Chiarn Jee dy ghra, Cur-my-ner, ta mish dt'oï's, O Ghog, ard-phrince Veshech as Tubal.

And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:

4

As neem's uss y chastey reesht, as ver-ym dooanyn ayns dty cheeillyn, as ver-ym lhiam magh oo, as ooilley dty heshaghtyn-caggee, cabbil as markee, ooilley coamrit ayns dy chooilley cheint dy eilley-caggee, eer sheshaght vooar lesh buckleryn as scapeyn, dy chooilley ghooinney jeu loaghtey yn cliwe.

And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

5

Persia, Ethiopia, as Libya m?roo: ad shoh ooilley lesh scape as helmet:

Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:

6

Gomer, as ooilley e heshaght; as mooarane sleih mâroosyn.

Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.

7

Kiartee oo hene, as bee er dty arrey dhyt hene, uss, as ooilley dty heshaght, ta er nyn jaglym hood's, as bee uss son gard dauesyn.

Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.

8

Lurg mooarane laghyn yiow uss feaysley: ayns ny bleeantyn s'jerree hig oo stiagh 'sy cheer, t'er ny chosney reesht veih'n chliwe, as t'er ny haglym ass mooarane pobble gys sleityn Israel, ta er ny ve naardey son foddey dy braa: agh bee ad er nyn goyrt lhieu reesht ass ny ashoonyn, as nee ad ooilley baghey dy sauchey.

After 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.

9

Hed uss seose, as hig oo myr dorrin, coodee oo yn thalloo myr bodjal, uss, as ooilley dty heshaghyn, as ymmodee pobble mayrt's.

Thou 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.

10

Myr shoh ta'n Chiarn Jee dy ghra, Hig eh gy-kione myrgeddin ec y traa shen hene, dy jig smooinaghtyn ayns dty aigney, as gowee oo drogh ourys.

Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:

11

As jir oo, Hem's seose gys thalloo ny baljyn foshlit; as hem noi ocsyn ta ec fea ta cummal dy sauchey, ooilley gyn voallaghyn, as nagh vel oc edyr boltyn, ny giattyn;

And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,

12

Dy gheddyn spooilley, as dy ghoaill cragh ec dty laue hene, dy hyndaa dty laue er ny ynnydyn va treigit, ta nish cummaltee ayndoo, as er y pobble t'er nyn jaglym ass ny ashoonyn, ta nish er gheddyn maase as cooid, ta baghey ayns mean y thallooin.

To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

13

Sheba as Dedan, as marchanyn Tarshish, marish ooilley ny lionyn aegey ocsyn, jir ad rhyt's, Vel uss er jeet dy ghoaill y spooilley? vel oo er haglym dty heshaght dy ghoaill cooid ec dty laue hene? dy chur lhiat ersooyl argid as airh, dy ghoaill maase as cooid, dy ghoaill mooarane cragh?

Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

14

Shen-y-fa vac y dooinney, jean phadeyrys, as abbyr rish Gog, Myr shoh ta'n Chiarn Jee dy ghra, Er y laa shen, tra ta my phobble Israel cummal dy sauchey, nagh vow uss fys er shen?

Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?

15

As hig uss veih dty ynnyd hene, ass ny ardjyn twoaie, uss as mooarane pobble mayrt, ooilley markiagh er cabbil, sheshaght vooar, as fir-chaggee niartal.

And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:

16

As hig oo seose noi my phobble Israel, myr bodjal dy choodaghey yn thalloo; bee shen ayns ny laghyn jerrinagh, as ver-yms lhiam oo noi yn thalloo aym's, dy vod ny ashoonee geddyn tushtey jeem's, tra veem's er my chasherickey aynyd's, O Ghog, kiongoyrt rish nyn sooillyn.

And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.

17

Myr shoh ta'n Chiarn Jee dy ghra, Nee uss eshyn, loayr mee jeh 'sy chenn earish, liorish my harvaantyn phadeyryn Israel, ren phadeyrys ayns ny laghyn shen ymmodee bleeantyn, dy jinnin lhiam uss nyn 'oï?

Thus saith the Lord God; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I would bring thee against them?

18

As hig eh gy-kione ec y traa cheddin, tra hig Gog noi thalloo Israel, ta'n Chiarn Jee dy ghra, dy jean my yymmoose troggal er my eddin.

And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that my fury shall come up in my face.

19

Son ayns my eadolys, as ayns chiass my eulys ta mee er loayrt: s'feer eh, er y laa shen dy bee craa-hallooin atchimagh ayns thalloo Egypt.

For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;

20

Myr shen dy bee eeastyn ny marrey, as eeanlee yn aer, as maase y vagheragh, as ooilley cretooryn snauee y thallooin, as ooilley ny deiney t'er feaï-ny-cruinney tilgit bun-ry-skyn ec my enish, as bee ny sleityn er nyn lheiggal, as bee ny ynnydyn corragh craait sheese, as nee dy chooilley voalley tuittym gys y thalloo.

So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.

21

As nee'm geamagh son y chliwe n'oï, trooid ooilley ny sleityn aym's, ta'n Chiarn Jee dy ghra: bee cliwe dagh dooinney noi e vraar.

And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord God: every man's sword shall be against his brother.

22

As nee'm eshyn y vriwnys lesh y phlaih as lesh fuill, as deayrt-yms ersyn, as er ooilley e heshaghtyn-caggee, as er yn ymmodee pobble ta mârish, thooillaghyn fliaghee, as claghyn sniaghtee mooar, aile as brimstone.

And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.

23

Myr shoh yioym's ooashley dou hene, as nee'm mee hene y chasherickey, as bee enney orrym's ayns sooillyn ymmodee ashoonyn, as bee fys ocsyn, dy nee mish y Chiarn.

Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
