Ezekiel 32:10

32:10 I will shock many peoples with you,

and their kings will shiver with horror because of you.

Ezekiel 38:6

38:6 They are joined by ⁶  Gomer with all its troops, and by Beth Togarmah from the remote parts of the north with all its troops – many peoples are with you. ⁷ 

¹ tn Heb “come against.”

² tn This is the only occurrence of this term in the OT. The precise meaning is uncertain.

³ tn Heb “an assembly of peoples.”

⁴ tn Heb “I will place before them judgment.”

⁵ tn The expression “throw my net” is common in Ezekiel (12:13; 17:20; 19:8).

⁹ tn The words “they are joined by” are added in the translation for purposes of English style.

¹⁰ sn The seven-nation coalition represents the north (Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, Beth-Togarmah), the south/west (Ethiopia, Put) and the east (Persia). The use of the sevenfold list suggests completeness. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:441.
