Ezechiel 38:8
After many days thou shalt be visited: at the end of years thou shalt come to the land that is returned from the sword, and is gathered out of many nations, to the mountains of Israel which have been continually waste: but it hath been brought forth out of the nations, and they shall all of them dwell securely in it.

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Post dies multos visitaberis : in novissimo annorum venies ad terram quæ reversa est a gladio, et congregata est de populis multis ad montes Israël, qui fuerunt deserti jugiter : hæc de populis educta est, et habitabunt in ea confidenter universi.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- ἀφ᾽ ἡμερῶν πλειόνων ἑτοιμασθήσεται, καὶ ἐπ᾽ ἐσχάτου ἐτῶν ἐλεύσεται καὶ ἥξει εἰς τὴν γῆν τὴν ἀπεστραμμένην ἀπὸ μαχαίρας, συνηγμένων ἀπὸ ἐθνῶν πολλῶν, ἐπὶ γῆν Ἰσραὴλ ἣ ἐγενήθη ἔρημος δι᾽ ὅλου· καὶ οὗτος ἐξ ἐθνῶν ἐξελήλυθεν, καὶ κατοικήσουσιν ἐπ᾽ εἰρήνης ἅπαντες.
- Hebrew (WLC)

Haydock's commentary
Visited, or rather "shall visit" Judea. (Chaldean) (Grotius)
Cambyses invaded Egypt twelve years after the Jews had returned, and came upon them two years later, designing to plunder them, at the instigation of their malevolent neighbours. He had sustained great losses in Egypt, and was arrived at Carmel when news was brought that the false Smerdis had declared himself king. See Herodotus iii. 61.
