Read in context

Ezekiel 39:15–19 · Berean Standard Bible

15 As they pass through the land, anyone who sees a human bone will set up a pillar next to it, until the gravediggers have buried it in the Valley of Hamon-gog.

16 (Even the city will be named Hamonah.) And so they will cleanse the land.

17 And as for you, son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says: Call out to every kind of bird and to every beast of the field: ‘Assemble and come together from all around to the sacrificial feast that I am preparing for you, a great feast on the mountains of Israel. There you will eat flesh and drink blood.

18 You will eat the flesh of the mighty and drink the blood of the princes of the earth as though they were rams, lambs, goats, and bulls—all the fattened animals of Bashan.

19 At the sacrifice I am preparing, you will eat fat until you are gorged and drink blood until you are drunk.
