Joel 3:7-13 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

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."

11. Hasten and come, all you surrounding nations, And gather yourselves there. Bring down, O Lord, Your mighty ones.

12. Let the nations be aroused And come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat, For there I will sit to judge All the surrounding nations.

13. Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, tread, for the wine press is full; The vats overflow, for their wickedness is great.
