1. "For behold, in those days and at that time, When I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
2. I will gather all the nations And bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there On behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; And they have divided up My land.
3. "They have also cast lots for My people, Traded a boy for a harlot And sold a girl for wine that they may drink.
4. Moreover, what are you to Me, O Tyre, Sidon and all the regions of Philistia? Are you rendering Me a recompense? But if you do recompense Me, swiftly and speedily I will return your recompense on your head.
5. Since you have taken My silver and My gold, brought My precious treasures to your temples,
6. and sold the sons of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks in order to remove them far from their territory,
7. behold, I am going to arouse them from the place where you have sold them, and return your recompense on your head.
8. Also I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a distant nation," for the Lord has spoken.
9. Proclaim this among the nations: Prepare a war; rouse the mighty men! Let all the soldiers draw near, let them come up!
10. Beat your plowshares into swords And your pruning hooks into spears; Let the weak say, "I am a mighty man."
