coasts, and set him for their
watchman:
“Son of man, speak to your people and tell them: ‘Suppose I bring the sword against a land, and the people of that land choose a man from among them,
appointing him as their
watchman,
And I will send a fire on
Magog, and among them that dwell
carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
I will send fire on
Magog and on those who dwell securely in the
coastlands, and they will know that I am the LORD.
