4
And what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Sidon, and all Galilee of the Gentiles? do ye render me a recompense? or do ye bear malice against me? quickly and speedily will I return your recompense on your own heads:
5
because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and ye have brought my choice ornaments into your temples;
6
and ye have sold the children of Juda and the children of Jerusalem to the children of the Greeks, that ye might expel them from their coasts.
7
Therefore, behold, I raise them up out of the place whither ye have sold them, and I will return your recompense on your own heads.
8
And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hands of the children of Juda, and they shall sell them into captivity to a far distant nation: for the Lord has spoken .
9
Proclaim these things among the Gentiles; declare war, arouse the warriors, draw near and go up, all ye men of war.
10
Beat your ploughshares into swords, and your sickles into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
11
Gather yourselves together, and go in, all ye nations round about, and gather yourselves there; let the timid become a warrior.
12
Let them be aroused, let all the nations go up to the valley of Josaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the Gentiles round about.
13
Bring forth the sickles, for the vintage is come: go in, tread , for the press is full: cause the vats to overflow; for their wickedness is multiplied.
14
Noises have resounded in the valley of judgment: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of judgment.
