Yea, and what have ye to do with Me, O Tyre and Sidon and all the coasts of Palestine? Will ye render Me a recompense? And if ye recompense Me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompense upon your own head,
5
because ye have taken My silver and My gold, and have carried into your temples My goodly, pleasant things.
6
The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.
7
Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither 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 children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off; for the LORD hath spoken it."
9
Proclaim ye 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 pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, "I am strong."
11
Assemble yourselves and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about; thither cause Thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD.
12
"Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.
13
Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, get you down; for the press is full, the vats overflow--for their wickedness is great!"
14
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision; for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
