Yehezkiel 38:10-12

38:10 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says: On that day thoughts will come into your mind, ¹  and you will devise an evil plan. 38:11 You will say, “I will invade ²  a land of unwalled towns; I will advance against ³  those living quietly in security – all of them living without walls and barred gates – 38:12 to loot and plunder, to attack ⁴  the inhabited ruins and the people gathered from the nations, who are acquiring cattle and goods, who live at the center ⁵  of the earth.”

[38:12]  ⁴ tn Heb “to turn your hand against.”
