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 reuniré a todas las naciones, y las haré bajar al valle de Josafat . Y allí entraré en juicio con ellas a favor de mi pueblo y mi heredad, Israel, a quien ellas esparcieron entre las naciones, y repartieron mi tierra.
3 También echaron suertes sobre mi pueblo, cambiaron un niño por una ramera, y vendieron una niña por vino para poder beber.
4 Además, ¿qué tenéis que ver conmigo, Tiro, Sidón y todas las regiones de Filistea? ¿Os queréis vengar de mí? Si de esta manera os vengáis de mí, bien pronto haré volver vuestra venganza sobre vuestra cabeza.
5 Por cuanto habéis tomado mi plata y mi oro, y os habéis llevado mis valiosos tesoros a vuestros templos,
6 y habéis vendido los hijos de Judá y Jerusalén a los griegos para alejarlos de su territorio,
