Ezekiel 39:14

The Slaughter of Gog’s Armies

13All the people of the land will bury them, and it will bring them renown on the day I display My glory, declares the Lord GOD.14And men will be employed to continually pass through the land to cleanse it by burying the invaders who remain on the ground. At the end of the seven months they will begin their search.15As 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.
