Listen to Joel 3:4
4 E também que tendes vós comigo, Tiro e Sidom, e todas as regiões da Filístia? Acaso quereis vingar-vos de mim? Se assim vos quereis vingar, bem depressa retribuirei o vosso feito sobre a vossa cabeça.

Joel 3:4 Meaning and Commentary

Joel 3:4

Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all
the coasts of Palestine?
&c.] The Tyrians, Zidonians, and Philistines, were near neighbours of the Jews, and implacable enemies to them; and are here put for the enemies of the true church of Christ, the Papists and Turks, and in whose possession those places now are: these are addressed by the Lord, inquiring or demanding the reason of their ill usage of him and his people: "what have ye to do with me?" to be called by my name, or accounted my people? I know you not, nor will I have any fellowship with you: or what have ye to do with my people, to disturb and distress them? what wrong have I or they done you, that you thus use them? will ye render me a recompence?
for turning you out of your land, and putting my people into it? do you think to retaliate this? and if ye recompense me;
by doing an injury to my people: swiftly [and] speedily will I return your recompence upon your own
head;
bring swift and sudden destruction upon you.

Joel 3:4 In-Context

2 congregarei todas as nações, e as farei descer ao vale de Jeosafá; e ali com elas entrarei em juízo, por causa do meu povo, e da minha herança, Israel, a quem elas espalharam por entre as nações; repartiram a minha terra,
3 e lançaram sortes sobre o meu povo; deram um menino por uma meretriz, e venderam uma menina por vinho, para beberem.
4 E também que tendes vós comigo, Tiro e Sidom, e todas as regiões da Filístia? Acaso quereis vingar-vos de mim? Se assim vos quereis vingar, bem depressa retribuirei o vosso feito sobre a vossa cabeça.
5 Visto como levastes a minha prata e o meu ouro, e os meus ricos tesouros metestes nos vossos templos;
6 também vendestes os filhos de Judá e os filhos de Jerusalém aos filhos dos gregos, para os apartar para longe dos seus termos;
