Where Gog appears in Scripture

1 Chronicles 5

בְּנֵי יוֹאֵל שְׁמַֽעְיָה בְנוֹ גּוֹג בְּנוֹ שִׁמְעִי בְנֽוֹ׃
4
The sons of Joel; Shemaiah his son, Gog his son, Shimei his son,

Ezekiel 38

בֶּן-אָדָם שִׂים פָּנֶיךָ אֶל-גּוֹג אֶרֶץ הַמָּגוֹג נְשִׂיא רֹאשׁ מֶשֶׁךְ וְתֻבָל וְהִנָּבֵא עָלָֽיו׃
2
Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
וְאָמַרְתָּ כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה הִנְנִי אֵלֶיךָ גּוֹג נְשִׂיא רֹאשׁ מֶשֶׁךְ וְתֻבָֽל׃
3
And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
לָכֵן הִנָּבֵא בֶן-אָדָם וְאָמַרְתָּ לְגוֹג כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה הֲלוֹא׀ בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא בְּשֶׁבֶת עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵל לָבֶטַח תֵּדָֽע׃
14
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?
וְעָלִיתָ עַל-עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵל כֶּֽעָנָן לְכַסּוֹת הָאָרֶץ בְּאַחֲרִית הַיָּמִים תִּֽהְיֶה וַהֲבִאוֹתִיךָ עַל-אַרְצִי לְמַעַן דַּעַת הַגּוֹיִם אֹתִי בְּהִקָּדְשִׁי בְךָ לְעֵינֵיהֶם גּֽוֹג׃
16
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.
וְהָיָה׀ בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא בְּיוֹם בּוֹא גוֹג עַל-אַדְמַת יִשְׂרָאֵל נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה תַּעֲלֶה חֲמָתִי בְּאַפִּֽי׃
18
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.

Ezekiel 39

וְאַתָּה בֶן-אָדָם הִנָּבֵא עַל-גּוֹג וְאָמַרְתָּ כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה הִנְנִי אֵלֶיךָ גּוֹג נְשִׂיא רֹאשׁ מֶשֶׁךְ וְתֻבָֽל׃
1
Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
וְהָיָה בַיּוֹם הַהוּא אֶתֵּן לְגוֹג׀ מְקֽוֹם-שָׁם קֶבֶר בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל גֵּי הָעֹֽבְרִים קִדְמַת הַיָּם וְחֹסֶמֶת הִיא אֶת-הָעֹֽבְרִים וְקָבְרוּ שָׁם אֶת-גּוֹג וְאֶת-כָּל-הֲמוֹנֹה וְקָרְאוּ גֵּיא הֲמוֹן גּֽוֹג׃
11
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamon-gog.
