2
I will gather together all the Gentiles, and will cause them to descend into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and there I will enter into judgment with them because of my people and of my heritage Israel, whom they scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
3
And they have cast lots for my people and have given a boy for a harlot and sold a girl for wine that they might drink.
4
Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Philistia? will ye render me a recompense? and if ye recompense me, swiftly
and speedily I will return your recompense upon your own head;
5
because ye have taken my silver and my gold and have carried into your temples my precious and beautiful things
6
and ye have sold the sons of Judah and the sons of Jerusalem unto the Grecians that ye might remove them far from their border.
7
Behold, I will raise them out of the place where ye have sold them and will return your recompense upon your own head:
8
and I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the LORD has spoken
it.
9
Proclaim this among the Gentiles: Prepare war; wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:
10
beat your plowshares into swords and your pruninghooks into spears; let the weak say, I
am strong.
11
Assemble yourselves and come, all ye Gentiles, and gather yourselves together round about; there cause thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD.
12
Let the Gentiles be wakened and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat for there I will sit to judge all the Gentiles round about.
