nation

goyim (גּוֹיִם) (plural) refers to a people, nation, or community.
This word in Greek is ethnē (ἔθνη) and is typically translated as Gentile in the New Testament.

• Genesis 10:5, 20, 31: Gôyim describes the nations descended from Noah’s sons, spread across the earth after the Flood.
• Isaiah 2:2-4: "All the nations" (gôyim) will flow to God’s mountain in the last days, indicating foreign peoples outside Israel.
• Joel 3:2: God gathers "all the nations" (gôyim) for judgment, paralleling Obadiah’s "day of the Lord" (Obadiah 1:15).
