# to kindle and make fires

# small shields, large shields, bows, arrows, the clubs and spears

# wanted to take ... wanted to plunder
|
|

|
Here "to take" and "to plunder" mean the same thing. Gog intended to take Israel's possessions, but Yahweh prevented him so that he was not able to do that. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublet]])

# will plunder ... wanted to plunder

Translate "plunder" as in [Ezekiel 23:46](../23/46.md). |
